Manager's Survival Guide to Engineering Laboratory Automation

The guide addresses three of the major topics in laboratory instrumentation, computing and automation: - managements role in setting policies and practices for technology management; - laboratory process modeling, and - preparation for systems integration.

The operational effectiveness of laboratory work is going to become increasingly important as companies continue to strive for more effective R & D and quality control laboratories. This manager s survival guide provides a basis for defining organizational policies required for effective planning, and, methodologies for describing work flow that can be used for evaluating the application of intelligent device, computing, and automation technologies.

Effective planning for intellectual property and technology management will be essential for the long-term success of laboratory automation programs. This guide is the first in a planned series on Laboratory Automation Engineering.
