RSS History of Statistics & Quality Improvement Sections ‘Happy 100th Birthday SPC’

Описание: W.A. Shewhart wrote a hundred years ago to his bosses:
“A few days ago, you mentioned some of the problems connected with the development of an acceptable form of inspection report which might be modified from time to time, in order to give at a glance the greatest amount of accurate information…… Should it be found desirable, however, to make use of this form of chart in any of the studies now being conducted within the Inspection Department, it will be possible to indicate the method to be followed in the particular examples.”

"Walter Shewhart developed a critical insight that, while all processes exhibit variation, some variation is inherent to the specific process. From this thinking, he invented the Statistical Process Control (SPC) technique in 1924."

The first control chart was “born”! The QIS will be holding a “birthday party” to celebrate this significant event. There will be three talks and a discussion.
