Bibliography

A brief bibliography of my published papers in Statistical Process Control (SPC) is available here   If there is sufficient interest postscript versions of some of these manuscripts may be made available.

Control Charts On Spreadsheets; A Tutorial Guide Or A Poor Mans Persuader

Files containing Lotus(.WK1) WK1   and SuperCalc(.CAL) CAL   versions of M.A.A. Cox's Control Charts On Spreadsheets; A Tutorial Guide Or A Poor Mans Persuader (M.A.A. Cox, Quality Engineering 1 (1989) 19-39).

The Implementation On Spreadsheets Of Control Charts For Attributes

A series of charts described in M.A.A. Cox's The Implementation On Spreadsheets Of Control Charts For Attributes (M.A.A. Cox, Quality Engineering 4 (1992) 343-355). The files are for np_fixed WK1   and CAL   , p_variab WK1   and CAL   , p_fixed WK1   and CAL   , np_varia WK1   and CAL   , u_fixed WK1   and CAL   , c_fixed WK1   and CAL   , u_variab WK1   and CAL   . Where the file names are self explanatory. It should be noted that the difference between fixed and variable size samples is reflected only on the raw data, not the spreadsheet code.

The Implementation On Spreadsheets Of Sampling Curves Associated With Acceptance/Rectification Plans

A series of charts described in M.A.A. Cox's The Implementation On Spreadsheets Of Sampling Curves Associated With Acceptance/Rectification Plans (M.A.A. Cox, Quality Engineering 5 (1993) 191-212). The files are qualoutb WK1   and CAL   , qualouth WK1   and CAL   , qualoutp WK1   and CAL   , depending on whether the Binomial, Hypergeometric or Poisson distribution is used.

The Evaluation on Spreadsheets of the Average Run Length Associated with X-bar Charts

A series of charts described in M.A.A. Cox's The Evaluation on Spreadsheets of the Average Run Length Associated with X-bar Charts (M.A.A. Cox, Quality Engineering 7 (1995) 445-470). The files are oc-arl WK1   and CAL   , contours WK1   and CAL   , cont_all WK1   and CAL   , The latter file presents an example of constructing combined curves for various run lengths.

Implementing the Circle Technique Using Spreadsheets

Files containing Lotus(.WK1) WK1  , Lotus(.WK4) WK4   and SuperCalc(.CAL) CAL   charts described in M.A.A. Cox's Implementing the Circle Technique Using Spreadsheets, (M.A.A. Cox, Quality Engineering 9 (1996) 65-76).

Towards the implementation of a Universal Control Chart and Estimation of its Average Run Length Using a Spreadsheet

Files containing Lotus(.WK1) WK1   , Lotus(.WK4) WK4   and SuperCalc(.CAL) CAL   the charts and the Average Run Length (ARL) calculation described in M.A.A. Cox's Towards the implementation of a Universal Control Chart and Estimation of it Average Run Length Using a Spreadsheet,(M.A.A. Cox, Quality Engineering 28 (2001) 353-364).

Beyond The Nomogram: Rapid Selection Of Parameters For A CUSUM Chart

Files containing Lotus(.WK1) WK1   , Lotus(.WK4) WK4   , SuperCalc(.CAL) CAL   and Excel(.XLS) XLS   the charts and the calculation are described in M.A.A. Cox's Beyond The Nomogram: Rapid Selection Of Parameters For A CUSUM Chart ,(M.A.A. Cox, Quality Engineering 16 (2003/4) 1-12).

A Neural Net Modelling the Parameters of a CUSUM Chart

A file containing Excel(.XLS) XLS   the calculation is described in M.A.A. Cox's A Neural Net Modelling the Parameters of a CUSUM Chart ,(M.A.A. Cox, Quality Engineering 17 (2005) 198-206).
All Lotus code was obtained as an automatic literal translation of the SuperCalc code. I would appreciate any comments, suggestions for improvements, etc. Send to the author Mike Cox.
