Every year new mobile phones, computers and gaming consoles are introduced, driving the continued applicability of Moore's law. The semiconductor manufacturing industry is highly dynamic and releases new, better and cheaper products day by day. But what happens to long-field life products like airplanes or ships, which need the same components for decades? How do electronic and also non-electronic systems that need to be manufactured and supported of decades manage to continue operation using parts that were available for a few years at most? This book attempts to answer these questions.  \u003cp\u003eThis is the only book on the market that covers obsolescence forecasting methodologies, including forecasting tactics for hardware and software that enable cost-effective proactive product life-cycle management. This book describes how to implement a comprehensive obsolescence management system within diverse companies. \u003ci\u003eStrategies to the Prediction, Mitigation and Management of Product Obsolescence\u003c\/i\u003e is a must-have work for all professionals in product\/project management, sustainment engineering and purchasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cb\u003eBjoern Bartels\u003c\/b\u003e is a senior consultant and obsolescence management competence lead with a masters degree in international business and a German diploma in industrial engineering and business management. \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUlrich Ermel\u003c\/b\u003e is Head of Department Materials and Obsolescence Management at TQ Systems GmbH and Chairman of the Component Obsolescence Group in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeter Sandborn\u003c\/b\u003e, PhD, is Professor of Mechanical Engineering in the CALCE Electronic Products and Systems Center at the University of Maryland.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael G.
