It is also intended for senior undergraduate students and first year graduate students in industrial, production, manufacturing and systems engineering disciplines. The purpose was to give the students a familiarity with basic statistical quality control. Examples are provided throughout the book to reinforce and illustrate the concepts, methods and approaches involved. The end of each chapter contains problems to facilitate practice ER -
