Systems Engineering

Learn SysML v2 with the ultimate guide for all skill levels in MBSE. Authored by insiders, it's your key to unlocking the full potential of system modeling and a passport to mastering your MBSE.

The book highlights the significance of software in systems engineering and uses AI as a subject matter expert. It presents a comprehensive example that covers SysML modeling, including requirements, use cases, logical/ physical architecture, and parametric simulation. It then continues into software, leveraging AI's code generation capabilities to produce software including microcontroller, UI, and DMBS code. It introduces a variety of personas and agents that can help engineers communicate with AI about systems and software engineering. The book also introduces SysML v2, focusing on the new language model and exploring AI's ability to generate models via code generation. Perhaps most importantly, it provides a straightforward roadmap for hardware/software co-design, accelerated at every step by AI. Whether you're a systems or software engineer, or just interested in how to use AI for engineering, AI Assisted MBSE with SysML will prove to be a valuable guide.

Linux is one of the best decisions you can make for your computer — but knowing where to start is the hard part. This guide walks you through everything: choosing a distribution, installing it, and using it confidently every day. It was written by Jay LaCroix of Learn Linux TV, for complete beginners. No prior experience required.

A true classic, not just in computing but in the broad area of scholarship. It is partly about the philosophy and mechanisms of science; partly about designing things so they work but mostly it is about how humans view the world and create things that match that view. This book will still be worth reading for a long time to come. - Charles Ashbacher

Hands on Labs to prepare you for a career in Linux or system engineering. Built by the Professional Linux User's Group to focus on exactly what the professional needs in the enterprise.

"If you intend to use machine learning to solve business problems at scale, I'm delighted you got your hands on this book." —Cassie Kozyrkov, Chief Decision Scientist at Google "Foundational work about the reality of building machine learning models in production." —Karolis Urbonas, Head of Machine Learning and Science at Amazon

Application sandboxing is the foundation of secure modern computing. This book explores the principles, architectures, and technologies behind containers, virtual machines, browser sandboxes, WebAssembly, and more, explaining how they isolate untrusted code, where their security boundaries break down, and how to choose the right approach for real-world systems.

Local Intelligence shows you how to run large language models entirely on your Mac with Apple Silicon. Learn to use tools like Ollama, MLX, and llama.cpp, understand quantization, and build real local AI applications with open-source code.

Kalman Filters Made Easy is a clear, intuitive introduction to one of engineering’s most powerful tools for dealing with noisy, imperfect, real‑world data. Instead of drowning you in equations, this book builds deep understanding through real examples — from drifting GPS signals to unpredictable sensor timing — and shows how engineers combine noisy measurements and imperfect models to estimate what’s really happening. If you work with robotics, drones, autonomous systems, or sensor‑driven devices, this guide gives you the mental models you need to design reliable systems in an uncertain world. This reflects the book’s core message: “The world gives us noisy, imperfect measurements. We want clean, reliable, accurate information. The filter is the bridge between the two.”

If you use some of the principles in this book, you can save your company thousands of person-hours and a small fortune. The wisdom in this book is based on studies and experience spanning a wide variety of systems including software systems, personal empowerment systems, creativity systems, meditation systems, and self-expression systems.

This book is a quick foray into the world of deep learning-based computer vision and abnormal equipment sound detection. The readers are introduced to the ease with which powerful equipment and product quality monitoring solutions can be built using sound and visual data.

This book familiarizes readers with the world of LLM and agentic AI, and helps them quickly gain a working-level knowledge of building useful agentic AI solutions for process industry operations. With no prerequisites required, practical demo applications, and a hands-on approach adopted throughout, this book makes advanced AI technologies accessible to process engineers and data scientists alike. It aims to help process data scientists and engineers take their first confident steps into Agentic AI world, understand the full picture, and build a strong enough foundation to keep learning and building on their own. Also available here.

This short book introduces process data scientists to knowledge graphs and GraphRAG, a powerful combination that overcomes the limitations of vanilla RAG when answering the kind of cross-document, relationship-heavy questions that process engineers usually care about. With a hands-on, application-driven approach, the book walks readers through the complete pipeline: designing an ontology for plant data, using LLMs to extract entities and relationships from incident reports, building and querying the graph in Neo4j, and finally assembling everything into a demo web application.
