(CRC Press: Boca Raton, FL) -- The process of reverse engineering has proven infinitely useful for analyzing original equipment manufacturer (OEM) components to duplicate or repair them, or simply improve on their design. A guidebook to the rapid-fire changes in this area, Reverse Engineering: Technology of Reinvention, by Wego Wang (CRC Press, 2010) introduces the fundamental principles, advanced methodologies, and other essential aspects of reverse engineering.

Features

• Discusses proper measurements and analyses required to duplicate, reproduce, or repair an OEM part using reverse engineering
• Aids readers in evaluating the feasibility of a reverse engineering proposal or project
• Focuses on how to analyze the relevant properties for materials identification, and the necessary data required for manufacturing process verification
• Explains statistical applications in data processing as they relate to reverse engineering
• Cites legal precedents on intellectual property and proprietary data, and discusses their effects on reverse engineering practice
