Abstract

Abstract The spacing and effectiveness functions of a quality control chart used either alone or in sets of two or more are derived for production at a constant level and for erratic production. The spacing of decision points is considered from a general point of view. The theory developed is fundamental in deciding which of two different decision techniques in quality control, each using the same spacing function, is the more effective.
