Generalized variance|S|quality control chart is very powerful way to detect small shifts in the mean vector. The main purpose of this paper, presents an improved the generalized variance |S|quality control chart for multivariate process. Generalized variance chart allow us to simultaneously monitor whether joint variability of two or more related variables is in control. In addition, a control ...

Monitoring multivariate quality characteristics is very common in production and service environment. Therefore, many control charts have been suggested by authors for monitoring multivariate processes. In another side, profile monitoring is a new approach in the area of statistical process control. In this approach, the quality of a product or a process is characterized by a relation between o...

in quality control charts, the problem of determining the optimum process mean arises when the deviation of a quality characteristic in one direction is more harmful than in the opposite direction. the failure mode in these two directions is usually different. a great majority of researches in this area have considered asymmet-ric cost function for processes with single quality characteristics....
