Abstract: | Two control charts are usually used to monitor the process mean and variance separately. The mean is monitored using the `(X)]{\bar{{X}}} chart while the variance using either the standard deviation, S chart, or the range, R chart. Recently, numerous single variable charts are proposed to jointly monitor the mean and variance. Most approaches transform
the sample mean and sample variance into two statistics, each having a standard scale, and either plotting them on the same
chart or combining them into a single statistic to be plotted on a chart. The R chart is more widely used than the S chart but no attempt is made to combine the `(X)]{\bar{{X}}} and R charts in the construction of a single variable chart and to study its properties and performance. In this paper, we transform
the `(X)]{\bar{{X}}} and R statistics into two standard normal random variables, used in the computation of two corresponding exponentially weighted
moving average (EWMA) statistics, which are then merged into a single plotting statistic for the proposed chart, called the
EWMA `(X)]-R{\bar{{X}}-R} chart. |
