Important problems to be solved are how often to sample the quality characteristic and when and by how much to apply an adjustment, i.e. to determine the optimal sampling interval, action limits and amount of adjustment. This determination may be done to minimize the long run cost resulting from the combined effects of the costs of taking each observation, of making each adjustment and of being off target. When the adjustment cost is zero, adjustments are made at each sampling point (this is a repeated adjustment scheme). However, when the cost of making an adjustment is important, two different action limits must be chosen and an adjustment must be made only when the current estimate of the mean deviation of the quality characteristic from target jumps outside the action limits (this is a dead band scheme). We consider three situations requiring asymmetric action limits; these are deterministic process drift, asymmetric off-target costs and asymmetric underlying distributions. Deterministic process drift is often caused by tool wear. Asymmetric costs may be due to asymmetric tolerances and/or to different costs of exceeding positive and negative tolerances. Asymmetric distributions sometimes appear in essentially positive quality characteristics. In addition, we consider the possibility that there is a delay in taking appropriate actions; this delay is often caused by the tests and procedures that are required to sample the process.</p>","PeriodicalId":100846,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series D (The Statistician)","volume":"52 4","pages":"501-514"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1046/j.1467-9884.2003.00375.x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72322111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This impressive document, only a few highlights of which I have space to mention here, is the results of the activities of many hundreds of individual members, most of whose names appear somewhere in it: all deserve our collective thanks for their contributions to furthering the objectives of the Society; promoting and nurturing the discipline and delivering services to members.</p><p>Some names deserve special mention, and the first of these is that of our retiring Honorary Treasurer, Vic Barnett, who has served in this office for 10 years, the maximum period allowed in our constitution. He has made many outstanding contributions to the Society in that time, the most visible evidence of which is the Errol Street building: Vic led the initiative to purchase and refurbish the building, a resource which has transformed our activities by providing a real home for the Society: comfortable and convenient meeting space, and decent offices for an expanded staff. At the same time, owning the building has greatly increased our financial standing, through the rise in property values, and the income generated by room letting.</p><p>Next, I want to thank Ivor Goddard, and all the staff under his leadership, for their hard work, professionalism and commitment, and their support for me and the other Honorary Officers. During the year, the staff has been restructured to meet the challenges of our current pattern of activities better, and many individuals have had changed portfolios of work. With this, and the disruption of the commissioning of a new information technology system, it is impressive that the delivery of the core activities (journals, meetings and membership servicing generally) has continued so smoothly, while new initiatives continue to be rolled out.</p><p>During the session, the recommendations of the governance and structure review were put to ballot by the Fellowship and were decisively accepted (although Fellows voted to retain their title). Implementation of the reorganization is well under way, and the full slate of Honorary Officers for the new session has now been appointed: Deborah Ashby, Ian Dryden, Harvey Goldstein, Denise Lievesley, Greg Phillpotts, Derek Pike, Sylvia Richardson, Mark Robson and Stephen Senn. This is a very strong team, and I am tremendously grateful to all for their willingness to take on their respective themes of Society activity, in partnership with theme managers from among the staff.</p><p>The 2002 Society conference, a general meeting held at the University of Plymouth, was an outstanding success, scientifically, socially and financially. For the first time, we appointed a dedicated Programme Chair, Valerie Isham, and the resulting integration of ideas between and within sessions made it a rewarding experience.
