The application of seven quality control methods is described in detail: Control Sheets, Pareto Diagram, Stratification, Histogram, Scatter Diagram, Cause and Effect Diagram, Control Chart. \u0000It is substantiated that in a digitalized economy with large scopes of accumulated information, the use of statistical data processing packages is an indisputable tool for analysts. Using statistical quality control methods implemented in the Statistica package, the authors conducted research on simulated data and constructed appropriate graphs and charts. Pareto diagram is designed for ranking the factors with impact on a production process or product quality. The stratification method allows for performing a variance analysis, to determine each factor’s effect on the result. \u0000The main advantage of the histogram method is its visibility and simplicity for analyzing the homogeneity of a distribution and checking for normality. Scatter diagrams allow one to evaluate the correlation strength and make graphical descriptions of the dependence between production factors, reveal the impact of a factor characteristic on the resulting one, etc. The Ishikawa’s cause-and-effect diagram provides a tool for arranging the factors with effect on the production process. The use of control charts makes enables for analyzing the production process in dynamics. \u0000It is emphasized that the described quality control methods can be applied in any sequence, production cycle or combination: altogether or as separate analytical tools. Based on the results of the study, the main challenges faced now by business analysts are summed up: the mastery of statistical tools and computer data processing for making effective management decisions.","PeriodicalId":52812,"journal":{"name":"Statistika Ukrayini","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45395253","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}

The purpose of the study is to to explore the Chinese experience on policy and mechanisms of development of high-tech manufacturies and to analyze of statistical tools to assess its implications; to assess the appropriateness or feasibility of their application in modern economic conditions of Ukraine. The study’s results have enhanced the existing understanding of the effect of State on accelerating the process structural transformation of the economy and its qualitative technological growth. Discovered the fact, that the Chinese Government is providing substantial support in the form of subsidies and tax incentives for establishment of special high-tech zones and high-tech enterprises for encourage the production of new and high-tech products and processes. It was revealed that, in order to grasp the economic operation and scientific, technological, industrial development of high-tech zones and high-tech enterprises, statistical investigation system was specially formulated іn addition to official statistics of the High-tech industries. It is proven that China’s state-led innovation development model has successfully accompanied and stimulated the growth of high-tech over the last 30 years; and has produced numerous endogenous technological innovations.

A set of principles for operating big data are proposed, with categorizing the sources of big data generation (in conformity with the economic activities), presently demanded by the official statistics and the society (agriculture, health protection, mining industry, mechanical engineering, education, power industry). A smart data system in smart cities is developed, containing the following components: smart house, smart environment, smart control, smart traffic, smart health, and smart citizen. It is determined that the system’s objective is to create the smart environment and simplify the way of life through saving time, energy and money.

The number of principles to be laid in the basis of a study devoted to the information and analytical support (IAS) of the law enforcement system are proposed. The results of this study show that IAS, apart from using advanced information technologies, provides a framework for substantiating and elaborating the measures aimed at the elimination of actual and potential crime as a threat to the successful social and economic development of a country, correcting the goals, objectives and directions of combatting the crime in keeping with the needs of the social and economic activities, rational selection of the staff and their effective use, etc. The implementation of the outlined objectives involves the emphasis on keeping with the requirements of the legal support for the national and economic security of the state. \u0000The following components of the diagnostics were defined: identifying the problem’s essence; constructing a set of indicators; creating a methodological framework for the assessment of proportionality, intensity and tendency of the development, the causality and effectiveness of the structural transformation; ranking the effectiveness of activities; assessing in real time the consequences of the implemented administrative decisions; controlling the execution of elaborated measures on combatting crime, etc. \u0000The methodology of statistical study, establishing the rules, techniques and methods for defining the patterns and tendencies of socio-economic phenomena and processes under the impact of factors originating from the internal and external environment, is proposed as the key component of the diagnostics.

Hence, the pandemic proved to be an accelerator of the digitalization of this sphere and other socio-economic sectors. Developed countries have been taking use of high performing systems for online information resources for decades, enabling for accumulating statistical data and making their sound and quick analysis. Ukraine recently has made essential advance on the way to digitalization and, as experts believe, could even outrun Estonia that had been a model example for the majority of European countries in this field.

As emphasized in the general hypothesis underlying this study, the importance of locating in such areas (both for communities and individuals) results from transborder economic activity, which was quite intensive before the February 2022. The question about the role of ʽplaceʼ and ʽspaceʼ for quality of life and well-being – including possible concentration of territorial units (gminas, rayons) of similar levels of development, or ‘neighbourhood effect’ (or clustering) among individuals/households – needs to be extended by analysis of the cross-level interaction between the community’s and individual’s respective measures of development and well-being. For this purpose, data from the two types of sources are used: (i) Local Data Bank (Poland) and Rayon Database (Ukraine) to characterize the level of (under)development and local deprivation, and (ii) data from survey of households conducted in parallel way in selected communes in Podkarpacie and Lviv. In the conclusions, confirmed is expectation that border residential neighbourhood/borderland has significant impact on individual and community respective measures, and on interaction between them (e.g., on average higher well-being in less deprived/better developed communities). However, some caution should be exercised when drawing conclusions for policy purposes, given the narrow scope of this type of (non-representative) research. But the methodological advantage of the above approach due to the inclusion of spatial aspects argues for the need for its further exploration, in a comparative perspective.","PeriodicalId":52812,"journal":{"name":"Statistika Ukrayini","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45053881","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}
