Continuous Improvement is a central concept in the quality movement. In almost all descriptions of quality initiatives Continuous Improvement is central. Even in ISO 9000:2000 that has been recognised. In this paper we will discuss the role of continuous Improvement within the quality movement, its relation to knowledge management and, especially, its origin in pragmatic philosophy.

Continuous quality improvement is now the focus of research and application in quality engineering. To achieve continuous improvement, it's necessary to integrate quality tools and to plan, design and control the whole process of creating quality. Based on the extensive literature review and the philosophy of concurrent quality engineering, the paper analyzes the relationships among major quality tools such as QFD, FMEA, DOE and SPC and presents a basic model and structure for the integration of quality tools.

Continuous quality improvement (CQI) has been promoting progresses of the social, and which is being studied and applied in much more widespread area at present. This paper systematically studies and reports research results of continuous quality improvement, involved in several key viewpoints of CQI such as the background of management and engineering philosophy on CQI, the objectives of CQI, the ways to implement CQI, the objects of CQI based on process. In terms of management methodology, the results of discussion on Benchmarking & CQI, standardization management and its certification & CQI, TQM pyramid & CQI and self-assessment & CQI etc. are reported. In quality engineering field, CQI culture of variation reduction is presented. Actually this paper is a comprehensive research project report of 'Continuous Quality Improvement System', supported jointly by NSFC and KOSEF.

This paper presents an environment for rule-based English-Korean machine translation system, which supports the translation domain adaptation and the continuous translation quality improvement. For the purposes, corpus is essential, from which necessary information for translation will be acquired. The environment consists of a corpus construction part and a translation knowledge extraction part. The corpus construction part crawls news articles from some newspaper sites. The extraction part builds the translation knowledge such as newly-created words, compound words, collocation information, distributional word representations, and so on. For the translation domain adaption, the corpus for the domain should be built and the translation knowledge should be constructed from the corpus. For the continuous improvement, corpus needs to be continuously expanded and the translation knowledge should be enhanced from the expanded corpus. The proposed web-based environment is expected to facilitate the tasks of domain adaptation and translation system improvement.

Recently many organization to become survival in changing marketplace, they must commit to implementing tools, systems, and quality management techniques. In this paper we develop process method of Team's problem-solving to reduce in failure costs. This paper suggest the step process how to measure quality cost reasonably that works in all types organizations. Or what is continuous improvement? Continuous improvement can be described as the continuous reduction of variation. Variation has many sources(machines, methods, materials, measurements, people, and environments) and cause(special & common in organization). As quality cost are not the answer to every organization financial, or quality-related problem, it's real results are designing & implementing quality cost system might be the answer.

This study investigated the method of continuous improvement of small-medium company production processes through POSCO's QSS(Quick Six Sigma) activities. QSS is a field operation technique that encompasses the advantages of Six Sigma, TPS(Toyota Production System), TQM (Total Quality Management), and IE(Industrial Engineering). Through this, POSCO not only encourages activities centered on related small and medium-sized partners, etc., but is also expected to contribute to the continuous improvement of the company's own production process through QSS activities. In this study, rather than unconditionally carrying out activities according to the needs of large companies, the research is to help the continuous improvement of the actual production process of small and medium-sized enterprises by effectively applying and spreading QSS activities in consideration of the characteristics and environment of the company. For this purpose, empirical research is conducted on the process improvement activities and QSS activities of company Y, which has less than 100 assembly and production quality and inspection processes among SMEs. The changes in the production process improvement of SMEs through the application of the final QSS were investigated through empirical studies.

The construction failures can be decreased through continuous improvement of construction process based upon the information of construction failures. Herein, the information of construction failures can be utilized as the key factor for identifying and enhancing various ineffective construction processes that can prevent failures. This research proposes a process model for the continuous improvement of construction processes by using construction failure information. Extensive reviews and analyses of literatures related to construction failures are performed to investigate its definition, type, cause, and lessons learned. This research adapts process modeling methodology and case-based reasoning for the development of the proposed CIMCP(continuous improvement model of construction process), and then suggests its framework that contains modules of case retrieval, case index, and case adaptation.

This study aims to determine the influence of the application of Total Quality Management (TQM) in coffee exporting companies in Bali. The research was conducted as there was not much research done to explore the application of TQM in coffee exporting companies in the city of Kintamani, Bali. Thus, this research plays an important role in examining the effect of the application of total quality management factors on company performance. In this research, the effect of TQM variables which are: customer focus factors, continuous improvement factors and employee empowerment factors on the company's performance was measured by using a balanced scorecard approach. The research result showed that the customer focus, the continuous improvement, and the employee empowerment factor has a positive impact on the performance of coffee exporting companies in the City of Kintamani. The result showed that continuous improvement factor has a more dominant influence compared to the customer focus factors and the employee empowerment factor. Thus, it is very important to consider the consistency when the companies implement TQM. In conclusion, TQM is important for coffee exporting companies in Indonesia to enter global competition, especially for world market-oriented companies and should be supported by the government and stakeholders.
