Quality Control: Changing with the Times

Abstract

A brief review of the historical development of quality control is provided, followed by a discussion of some of its fundamental concepts. Two statistical techniques widely used in the traditional quality control programmes are then described and compared with the Japanese Taguchi Methods, an increasingly popular new approach to quality control.
