Manufacturing and service processes today usually involve more than one process stages
and operations. With an emphasis on achieving satisfactory product and service quality …

A review of the literature on cause selecting charts (CSCs) in MULTISTAGE PROCESSES is
given, with a concentration on developments which have occurred since 1993. Model based …

Most manufacturing processes consist of a large number of stages. The modeling of multi-
stage processes by considering physical and mechanical laws in a linear state space form is …

In most real-world manufacturing systems, the production of goods comprises several
autocorrelated stages and the quality characteristics of the goods at each stage are …

In programs monitoring surgical quality, risk-adjusted control charts have been used widely
to detect changes in surgical performance. Ignoring the survival time may lead to information …

Landslides are severe geographical activities that result in large quantities of rock and
debris flowing down hill-slopes, leading to thousands of casualties and billions of dollars in …

Most statistical process control research focuses on single-stage processes. This article
considers the problem of multistage process monitoring and fault identification. This problem …

Abstract The performance of Multistage Manufacturing Processes (MMPs) can be measured
by quality, productivity and cost, which are inversely related to the variation of key product …

Modern manufacturing systems typically involve multiple production stages, the real-time
status of which can be tracked continuously using sensor networks that generate a large …

In most modern manufacturing systems, products are often the output of several correlated
stages. Nevertheless, quality of a product or process in both single and multistage …
