An extremely important issue in quality management is monitoring and diagnosing processes, and, subsequently, supervising them using so-called control charts. In typical production charts with constant parameters are commonly used, such as x-R, x-s, CUSUM, EWMA others, which, most cases, effective tools for process stability evaluation. Charts considered untypical (in statistical control) those...

in statistical quality control a very widely used measure is average run length (arl) which may be worked out by different methods like integral equation, approximations, and monte carlo simulations. the arl measure and the other related measures are of major significance in every type of production process. an omission in its computation (and hence its related measures such as extra quadratic ...
