Exploring Requirements: Quality Before Design ISBN: 0932633137     D C Gause, G M Weinberg Finally, here's an innovative book that gives you the understanding you need to give people the solutions they want. The collaborative team of Gause and Weinberg tells how you can assure the requirements are right -- before the product is designed. Written by two authorities in the field, this book is a collection of ideas developed, refined, and tested during their more than sixty combined years of work with both large and small organizations. The techniques formulated in Exploring Requirements are not merely theoretical; they have been used effectively to develop a wide range of products -- from computer software to furniture, books, and buildings. Systems analysts and anyone involved with the challenges of the requirements process will greatly benefit from this book. UK Reviews, Pricing and Ordering Information.

Managing Quality (Blackwell Business) ISBN: 0631214100     B G Dale This comprehensive total quality management text aims to provide readers with an appreciation of the concepts and principles of TQM and is a wide-ranging source of reference for the many associated tools, techniques and systems. For the third edition of this text, the author has undertaken a complete revision based on feedback from users of the previous two editions. There are new contributors and additional chapters have been added to reflect recent developments in the field. New material has been introduced on: "The role of management in Total Quality Management", "Policy deployment", "Sustaining TQM", "Business Process Re-engineering", "Self-assessment, models, quality awards". In addition, some of the material has been re-ordered and changes have been made to the terminology. This text balances contributions from practitioners with those from the academic community and can be used to gain an overview of TQM as a whole, to find new ideas or angles on TQM, or to dip into a particular subject, since each chapter also stands alone.

Process Management to Quality Improvement: The Way to Design, Document and Re-Engineer Business Systems ISBN: 0471942839    G Born In recent years, quality has gone to the top of the management agenda. However, the quality revolution is not yet won - it is threatened by unacceptably high costs in implementing systems. These costs can be rationalized by adopting more systematic approaches to the design of quality processes and systems. This study presents a systematic method encompassing the basic principles of quality management. It demonstrates that documentation lies at the heart of quality management and shows how to write documents using a systematic method. Illustrated with practical examples and detailed case studies, it provides a template for the use of typical quality systems both in Europe and the USA. UK Reviews, Pricing and Ordering Information.

Quality and Process Improvement ISBN: 0766828727     M A Fryman This book offers readers step-by-step approaches for achieving quality and process improvement through the use of many techniques. These methods include statistical process control, flowcharting, Pareto analysis and fishbone diagramming, process capability and process capability indices, design of experiments (DOE), and more! The first part of the book establishes the building blocks upon which quality is based, discussing each in great detail while using everyday examples to link individual concepts to the world of quality and illustrate how they interface with one another. Once this foundation has been established, the second part of the book encourages readers to apply the techniques of quality systematically to achieve documented process improvement. Complex mathematical concepts are presented and explained at a level that is easy to understand, to help readers to gain a sound understanding of DOE, enabling them to determine the level settings for different factors and predict optimum level settings and expected outcome.

Introduction to Reliability and Quality Engineering (2nd Edition) ISBN: 0201331322     J P Bentley This book is an introduction to the topics of quality and reliability, using a broad approach which is not linked to any particular engineering discipline. The first chapter explains the concepts of quality and reliability, introduces practical definitions and relevant statistics. The second chapter shows how to calculate the reliability of a range of important systems given failure rate data for individual elements and components. Typical component and element failure rate and models are presented in Chapter 3, together with discussion of software and human reliability. Chapter 4 deals with quality and reliability in manufacture and discusses Total Quality Management, the influence of quality and reliability on product economics and how both can be achieved at the design, production and testing stages. Chapter 5 is concerned with reliability in maintenance, examines how different maintenance strategies influence the total cost of ownership; these strategies are then discussed in detail. The application of reliability principles to engineering safety is covered in Chapter 6; this is a case study of the design of a highly reliable protective system for hazardous chemical process. The book contains around 100 line diagrams and tables and several worked examples. The mathematics is limited to the minimum necessary for understanding the principles involved. The book is intended primarily for undergraduate students on electrical, electronic, instrumentation/control, mechanical, manufacturing and chemical engineering degree courses. Furthermore, since the level of mathematics is not high, much of the material will be helpful to technical engineers and students. The book should also be of use to professional engineers requiring an introductory text. UK Reviews, Pricing and Ordering Information. USA Reviews, Pricing and Ordering Information.

Modern Statistics for Engineering and Quality Improvement ISBN: 0534190502     J S Lawson, J Erjavec Through years of teaching experience, John S. Lawson and John Erjavec have learned that it doesn't take much theoretical background before engineers can learn practical methods of data collections, analysis, and interpretation that will be useful in real life and on the job. With this premise in mind, the authors wrote ENGINEERING AND INDUSTRIAL STATISTICS, which includes the basic topics of engineering statistics but puts less emphasis on the theoretical concepts and elementary topics usually found in an introductory statistics book. Instead, the authors put more emphasis on techniques that will be useful for engineers. With fewer details of traditional probability and inference and more emphasis on the topics useful to engineers, the book is flexible for instructors and interesting for students.

Measurement and Calibration Requirements for Quality Assurance to ISO 9000 ISBN: 0471976857    A S Morris ISO 9000: the international standard on quality systems. An updated version of Measurement and Calibration for Quality Assurance (1991) which was based on the (now obsolete) British Standard BS 5750. This revised version is based on the latest international quality assurance standard ISO 9000 now adopted by industry around the world. The approach of this book is to present the subject of quality assurance first, introducing the problems concerned with product quality and the interpretation of the imposed requirements and standards involved. This is followed by a discussion of the measurement and calibration procedures and equipment necessary for the operation of the mechanisms for assessing the sources of measurement error and quantifying their effect. A series of separate chapters is devoted to each of the commonly measured quality-related quantities. UK Reviews, Pricing and Ordering Information. USA Reviews, Pricing and Ordering Information.
