"In this new edition, the author continues to explain how to combine the many statistical methods explored in the book in order to optimize quality control and improvement. The book has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect the latest research and practices in statistical methods and quality control, and new features include: Updated coverage of control charts, with newly added tools; The latest research on the monitoring of linear profiles and other types of profiles; Sections on generalized likelihood ratio charts and the effects of parameter estimation on the properties of CUSUM and EWMA procedures; New discussions on design of experiments that include conditional effects and fraction of design space plots; New material on Lean Six Sigma and Six Sigma programs"--
