In recent years, the exponential-weighted-moving-average (EWMA) statistic based controllers are popular in semiconductor manufacturing. However, the single EWMA controller is not su3cient for compensating for the wear-out process. Thus, a double EWMA controller was proposed to enhance the capability for controlling the drifting process. In the literatures, in the solution of the double EWMA con...

Reliability and quality of service from information systems has been threatened by cyber intrusions. To protect information systems from intrusions and thus assure reliability and quality of service, it is highly desirable to develop techniques that detect intrusions. Many intrusions manifest in anomalous changes in intensity of events occurring in information systems. In this study, we apply, ...

The exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control chart has been widely studied as a tool for monitoring normal processes due to its simplicity and efficiency. However, relatively little attention has been paid to EWMA charts for monitoring Poisson processes. This paper extends EWMA charts to Poisson processes with emphasis on quick detection of increases in Poisson rate. Both cases with...

Process monitoring through control charts is a quite popular practice in statistical process control. This study is planned for monitoring the process dispersion parameter using exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control chart scheme. Most of the EWMA dispersion charts that have been proposed are based on the assumption that the parent distribution of the quality characteristic is nor...

A quality-control chart based on exponentially weighted moving averages (EWMA) has, in the past few years, become a popular tool for controlling inaccuracy in industrial quality control. In this paper, I explain the principles of this technique, present some numerical examples, and by computer simulation compare EWMA with other control charts currently used in clinical chemistry. The EWMA chart...

In this paper, a comparative study of performance of some parametric and nonparametric EWMA control charts for detecting the process mean shift is considered. In section 2, we briefly describe each of the various EWMA models that are taken into account in our present study, Viz. the Parametric X -EWMA and Nonparametric Grouped Signed Rank (GSR)-EWMA, for the purpose of comparative study. In Sec...

Control charts are extensively used in processes and are very helpful in determining the special cause variations so that a timely action may be taken to eliminate them. One of the charting procedures is the Shewhart-type control charts, which are used mainly to detect large shifts. Two alternatives to the Shewhart-type control charts are the cumulative (CUSUM) control charts and the exponentia...
