Engineering Systems Analysis for Design
ESD.71 · Aeronautics and Astronautics, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Engineering Systems Division, Materials Science and Engineering · Graduate · Fall 2008
Prof. Richard de Neufville
<p>Engineering systems design must have the flexibility to take advantage of new opportunities while avoiding disasters. This subject develops “real options” analysis to create design flexibility and measure its value so that it can be incorporated into system optimization. It builds on essential concepts of system models, decision analysis, and financial concepts. Emphasis is placed on calculating value of real options with special attention given to efficient analysis and practical applicatio…
