Acceptance Sampling Methods Used in Quality Control $98.77 Quality control can be defined as controlling raw materials, production processes and finished products with the aim of preventing manufacturing of defective goods. A defective good harms both the consumer and the producer. The consumer is damaged because of receiving a defective good; as its production schedule will be affected negatively. The producer is damaged because it gets lack of prestige, and it will have to repair the product or exchange it with a nondefective one. Therefore, it is very important to prevent defective products to reach the consumer. Acceptance sampling methods are used for this purpose, with the aim of inspecting units in the lot and sorting defective lots out. This work examines acceptance sampling methods used in statistical quality control. It also presents a case study, where three different sampling plans are designed for an organisation and compared to each other in many aspects.

Broadcast Quality $68.51 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Broadcast Quality is an ambiguous term used to denote the quality achieved by professional Camcorders used for television broadcasts, usually in standard definition. As the standards for television broadcasts have changed, the term has become more nebulous. Manufacturers have used it to describe both professional and prosumer or SemiProfessional devices, with the minimum requirements typically being the inclusion of 3 CCDs and relatively lowcompression analog or digital recording capability with little or no chroma subsampling. The advantages of 3 CCDs include better color definition in shadows, better overall lowlight sensitivity, and reduced noise when compared to singleCCD systems. With continuing improvements in image sensors, resolution, recording media, and codecs, by 2006 the term no longer carried much weight in the marketplace. The term is also used in its literal sense in broadcasting jargon in judging the fitness of audio or video for broadcast.

Quality Wars $8.32 The quality revolution in American industry, now more than a decade old, has produced an avalanche of books, but this is the first in-depth study reporting the struggles from inside the companies that have attempted large-scale improvement efforts. Jeremy Main has interviewed more than a dozen chief executives, all of whom have managed quality programs, including Charles Clough of Nashua, Robert Galvin of Motorola, James Hagen of Conrail, Roger Milliken of Milliken, Ray State of Analog Devices, and John Young of Hewlett-Packard, in addition to hundreds of other senior executives, workers, labor representatives, city officials, military officers, and hospital administrators. Through their experiences, Main reveals what works and what doesn't work when an organization attempts the transforming leap into Total Quality Management. Their message comes through loud and clear: it is a tough battle, but persistence can win priceless rewards. The notable successes at BancOne, L.L. Bean, Ford, Hewlett-Packard, Motorola, Saturn, Solectron, and Xerox prove it. However, Main shows that Motorola and Hewlett-Packard, among the earliest and best practitioners of total quality, are still finding obstacles to overcome. And some other early converts, such as Florida Power & Light, have stumbled badly along the way. Main's vivid descriptions of these setbacks capture the difficulties inherent in implementing a total quality system. His dramatic accounts of success and failure at companies such as Milliken and Intel convey valuable knowledge that is otherwise gained only by actual experience. The way to achieve the "new quality" of today, Main shows, is through a full commitment to TQM. He reveals through the experiences of these companies that TQM is not just a management tool, as it has often been used, but a management philosophy that is indispensable in attaining a high level of quality -- now a requisite for competing successfully. With the collaboration of the Juran Institute, Main demonstrates how TQM has transformed companies by improving quality at all levels. The accounts of these triumphs are direct evidence that world-class quality is attainable by American industry, and will inspire and point the way for executives, managers, and government officials in their timeless pursuit of total quality. |

Forest Quality $75 Deforestation is frequently a topic of discussion in the environmental arena but it is not just the number of trees that matters; the quality of the forest is also important. Even where the forest area is stable or increasing there are often rapid changes in its character. Natural forests are being replaced by plantations or by intensively managed forests. Around the world forests are becoming younger and less diverse in both species and structure; this has important impacts for biodiversity and also affects many human values. In this groundbreaking text forest quality is discussed as a useful new concept in forest conservation and management. Three main assessment criteria are used: authenticity; environmental benefits; and social and economic benefits. The book describes a methodology and protocol for collecting and analysing data and outlines in detail the approach required with each indicator. The authors advocate a landscape approach to assessment and demonstrate how assessment works through a series of case studies that show how this approach can be used in many ways to help forest conservation management. This hands-on manual is for professionals involved in forestry conservation and resource management worldwide and contains case study material from Europe Asia Africa and Latin America that demonstrates practical uses of the new 'landscape' approach to forest conservation. |

Improving Quality of Hospital Services $113.11 Today, more and more hospitals are aiming to penetrate the rapidly growing market for modern medical treatment. Patient satisfaction is considered as the hallmark measure of quality service by healthcare providers. Owing to various factors related to their design and functioning, the discharge process and food and beverages department have forever been recognized as flawed areas by hospital administrators. Although, a lot of effort has been invested for improving the outputs of these departments; hospitals generally fail to achieve functional streamlining and these departments continue to be major reasons for dissatisfaction. In this manuscript is presented a systematic approach for tackling these problems. Tools of Six Sigma quality improvement were used to identify and implement solutions for the particular scenario. The methodology used here will be helpful to a variety of professionals for quality improvement.

Quality Assurance for Environmental Analysis $320.95 Quality assurance (QA) for environmental analysis is a growing feature of the nineties as is illustrated by the number of QA guidelines and systems which are being implemented nowadays. There is, however, often a huge gap between the implementation and respect of QA guidelines and the technical approach undertaken to improve and validate new analytical methods. This is particularly true for complex determinations involving multi-step methodologies such as those used in speciation and organic analyses. Quality assurance may also be considered from the technical point of view, which is the focus of this book. The techniques used in different analytical fields (inorganic, speciation and organic analysis) are critically reviewed (i.e. discussion of advantages and limitations) and existing tools for evaluating their performance are described (e.g. interlaboratory studies, use of certified reference materials). Particular reference is made to the activities of the Measurements and Testing Programme (BCR) of the European Commission towards the improvement of quality control of environmental analysis. The book has been written by experienced practitioners. By its nature, it serves as a practical reference for postgraduate students and environmental chemists who need a wide overview of the techniques used in environmental analysis and existing ways of evaluating the performance of relevant analytical methods. The critical discussions of the methods described, as well as the development of quality assurance aspects, makes it unique. |

Software Quality Control $60.54 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Software Quality Control is the set of procedures used by organizations to ensure that a software product will meet its quality goals at the best value to the customer, and to continually improve the organizations ability to produce software products in the future. Software quality control refers to specified functional requirements as well as nonfunctional requirements such as supportability, performance and usability. It also refers to the ability for software to perform well in unforeseeable scenarios and to keep a relatively low defect rate. These specified procedures and outlined requirements leads to the idea of Verification and Validation and software testing. It is distinct from software quality assurance which includes audits of the quality management system against a standard. Whereas software quality control is a control of products, software quality assurance is a control of processes. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.

Quality and Safety in Radiotherapy $129.95 The first text to focus solely on quality and safety in radiotherapy, this work encompasses not only traditional, more technically oriented, quality assurance activities, but also general approaches of quality and safety. It includes contributions from experts both inside and outside the field to present a global view. The task of assuring quality is no longer viewed solely as a technical, equipment-dependent endeavor. Instead, it is now recognized as depending on both the processes and the people delivering the service. Divided into seven broad categories, the text covers: Quality Management and Improvement includes discussions about lean thinking, process control, and access to services. Patient Safety and Managing Error looks at reactive and prospective error management techniques. Methods to Assure and Improve Quality deals broadly with techniques to monitor, assure, and improve quality. People and Quality focuses on human factors, changing roles, staffing, and training.Quality Assurance in Radiotherapy addresses the general issues of quality assurance with descriptions of the key systems used to plan and treat patients and includes specific recommendations on the types and frequencies of certain tests. Quality Control: Equipment and Quality Control: Patient-Specific provides explicit details of quality control relating to equipment and patient-specific issues. Recently, a transformation of quality and safety in radiotherapy has begun to take place. Among the key drivers of this transformation have been new industrial and systems engineering approaches that have come to the forefront in recent years following revelations of system failures. This book provides an approach to quality that is long needed, one that deals with both human and technical aspects that must be the part of any overall quality improvement program. |

Air Quality Index $90.81 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Air Quality Index is a number used by government agencies to characterize the quality of the air at a given location. As the AQI increases, an increasingly large percentage of the population is likely to experience increasingly severe adverse health effects. To compute the AQI requires an air pollutant concentration from a monitor or model. The function used to convert from air pollutant concentration to AQI varies by pollutant, and is different in different countries. Air quality index values are divided into ranges, and each range is assigned a descriptor and a color code. Standardized public health advisories are associated with each AQI range. An agency might also encourage members of the public to take public transportation or work from home when AQI levels are high. Author: Miller, Frederic P./ Vandome, Agnes F./ McBrewster, John Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 104 Publication Date: 2009/12/15 Language: English Dimensions: 5.98 x 9.01 x 0.24 inches |

Water Quality Indices (Hardcover) $244.27 This book covers water quality indices (WQI) in depth - it describes what purpose they serve, how they are generated, what are their strengths and weaknesses, and how to make the best use of them. It is a concise and unique guide to WQIs for chemists, chemical/environmental engineers and government officials. Whereas it is easy to express the quantity of water, it is very difficult to express its quality because a large number of variables determine the water quality. WQIs seek to resolve the difficulty by translating a set of a large number of variables to a one-digit or a two-digit numeral. They are essential in communicating the status of different water resources in terms of water quality and the impact of various factors on it to policy makers, service personnel, and the lay public. Further they are exceedingly useful in the monitoring and management of water quality. With the importance of water and water quality increasing exponentially, the importance of this topic is also set to increase enormously because only with the use of indices is it possible to assess, express, communicate, and monitor the overall quality of any water source.Provides a concise guide to WQIs: their purpose and generationCompares existing methods and WQIs and outlines strengths and weaknessesMakes recommendations on how the indices should be used and under what circumstances they apply |
