LOOKING
AT THE SPECS |
|
|
|
by Gerard Fonte
With this article, Gerard helps us answer some of the questions about
one of the defining characteristics of most engineering projects,
showing us that, when engineers, marketeers, and customers all have
a common goal, they can get the most out of specifications. But, is
it really possible for all three to come to an agreement? See what
Gerard has to say.

A VIRTUAL WIRELESS AUTOMATION SYSTEM |
|
|
|
by
Michael Chan
What
is ırealı and what is virtual reality? Itıs hard to tell nowadays.
Similarly, Michaelıs project scheme is wireless, but is it really?
It seems like it because there is little or no wiring or installation
involved when you want to make a change to your system. Let Michael
take you through the steps, then maybe you can get virtually wireless.

by George Novacek
Are you creative? Well, if you are the
engineer who has to make the decision concerning a certain design,
then you had better be. George discusses some of the more important
aspects of decision making and shows us that, by understanding the
problems and options available, we can decrease the risk and choose
the right alternative.

through the steps and then encourages us to walk on our own with different
examples. And remember, practice makes perfect!
