Shewhart X-chart, which is most widely used in practice, is shown to be inappropriate for the cases where the process distribution is one-sided asymmetrical, and thus some nonparametric Shewhart type charts are developed instead. These schemes may be applied usefully when there is not enough information in determining the process distribution. The average run lengths are obtained to compare the efficiency of control charts for various shifts of the location parameter and for some typical one-sided asymmetrical distributions.

This research proposes a method for economic-statistical design of adaptive moving average (A-MA) charts. The basic idea of the A-MA chart is to accumulate previous samples selectively in order to increase the sensitivity. The A-MA chart is a kind of adaptive chart such as the variable sampling size (VSS) chart. A major advantage of the A-MA chart over the VSS chart is that it is easy to maintain rational subgroups by using the fixed sampling size. A steady state cost rate function is constructed based on Lorenzen and Vance (1986) model. The cost rate function is optimized with respect to five design parameters. Computational experiments show that the A-MA chart is superior to the VSS chart as well as to the Shewhart $\bar{X}$ chart in the economic-statistical sense.

Multivariate cumulative sum (CUSUM) control charts for simultaneously monitoring both means and variances under multivariate normal process are investigated. Performances of multivariate CUSUM schemes are evaluated for matched fixed sampling interval (FSI) and variable sampling interval (VSI) features in terms of average time to signal (ATS), average number of samples to signal (ANSS). Multivariate Shewhart charts are also considered to compare the properties of multivariate CUSUM charts. Numerical results show that presented CUSUM charts are more efficient than the corresponding Shewhart chart for small or moderate shifts and VSI feature with two sampling intervals is more efficient than FSI feature. When small changes in the production process have occurred, CUSUM chart with small reference values will be recommended in terms of the time to signal.

Several different control statistics to simultaneously monitor dispersion matrix of several quality variables are presented since different control statistics can be used to describe variability. Multivariare cumulative sum (CUSUM) control charts are proposed and the performances of the proposed CUSUM charts are evaluated in terms of average run length (ARL). Multivariate Shewhart charts are also proposed to compare the properties of the proposed CUSUM charts. The numerical results show that multivariate CUSUM charts are more efficient than multivariate Shewhart charts for small or moderate shifts. And we also found that small reference value of the CUSUM chart is more efficient for small shift.

In various industries, especially manufacturing and chemical industries, it is often observed that the distribution of a specific process, initially having followed a normal distribution, becomes skewed as a result of unexpected causes. That is, a process deviates from a normal distribution and becomes a skewed distribution. The skew-normal (SN) distribution is one of the most employed models to characterize such processes. The shape of this distribution is determined by the asymmetry parameter. When this parameter is set to zero, the distribution is equal to the normal distribution. Moreover, when there is a shift in the asymmetry parameter, the mean and variance of a SN distribution shift accordingly. In this paper, we propose procedures for monitoring the asymmetry parameter, based on the statistic derived from the noncentral t-distribution. After applying the statistic to Shewhart and the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) charts, we evaluate the performance of the proposed procedures and compare it with previously studied procedures based on other skewness statistics.

Monitoring variability is a vital part of modem statistical process control. The conventional Shewhart Rand S charts address the setting where the in-control process readings have a constant variance. In some settings, however, it is the coefficient of variation, rather than the variance, that should be constant. This paper develops a chart, equivalent to the S chart, for monitoring the coefficient of variation using rational groups of observations.

Properties of the variable sampling interval(VSI) CUSUM chart for monitoring dispersion matrix of related quality characteristics are investigated. Performances of the proposed charts are evaluated for matched fixed sampling interval(FSI) and VSI charts in terms of average time to signal(ATS) and average number of samples to signal (ANSS). Average number of swiches(ANSW) of the proposed VSI Shewhart and CUSUM charts are also investigated.

In this article, a control chart based on multiple dependent (or deferred) state sampling for the gamma distributed quality characteristic is proposed using the gamma to normal transformation. The proposed control chart has two pairs of control limits, which can be determined by considering the in-control average run length (ARL). The shift in the scale parameter of a gamma distribution is considered and the out-of-control ARL is evaluated. The performance of the proposed chart has been shown for different levels of the parameters of the proposed control chart. It is also shown that the proposed chart is better than the Shewhart chart in terms of ARLs. A case study with a real data has been included for the practical usage of the proposed scheme.

In the standard assumption of statistical process monitoring (SPM) under consideration, the in-control region of the control parameter of quality characteristic consists of a single point. However, if small deviations from the ideal situation may not be of practical importance, the parametric space can consist of three regions: In-control, indifference, and out-of-control. In this paper, we propose two exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) charting procedures applicable to the situation with three parameter regions, and compare the efficiency of the proposed procedures with the Shewhart chart and the cumulative sum (CUSUM) chart.
