This article presents a single CUSUM scheme (called the GCUSUM chart) for simultaneously monitoring the time interval T and magnitude X of an event. For example, a traffic accident may be considered as an event, and the total loss in dollars in each case is the event magnitude. Since the GCUSUM...

The np control chart is used widely in Statistical Process Control (SPC) for attributes. It is difficult to design an np chart that simultaneously satisfies a requirement on false alarm rate and has high detection effectiveness. This is mainly because one is often unable to make the in-control...

This article compares the effectiveness and robustness of nine typical control charts for monitoring the mean of a variable, including the most effective optimal and adaptive Sequential Probability Ratio Test (SPRT) charts. The nine charts are categorized into three types (the X¯ type, CUSUM...

Purpose – The exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts are widely used in industries for monitoring small and moderate process shifts. The purpose of this paper is to develop an algorithm for the optimization design of the EWMA chart (known as MD‐EWMA chart)....
