IEBoK
0. Introduction
1
Many of these knowledge areas contain an overlap of content. Every effort has
been made to place content in the knowledge area that best represents the use
of that knowledge. References are made between knowledge areas where overlap
is identified.
The IEBoK is structured around the fundamental knowledge areas within IE.
Applications of the IEBoK are an extension of how the IE knowledge areas are
employed in the design, improvement and installation of integrated systems of
people, materials, information, equipment and energy. As such, specific details to
how the IEBoK is used in health care, banking, electronics manufacturing, or any
other specific industry are not provided. Rather, the IEBoK provides the knowledge
areas necessary for the design, improvement and installation of integrated systems of
people, materials, information, equipment and energy in any industry or service area.
