Control Charts for Variable Data
(length, width, etc.)
• Mean (x-bar) charts
– Tracks the central tendency (the average
or mean value observed) over time
• Range (R) charts:
– Tracks the spread of the distribution over
time (estimates the observed variation)


Process Capability
• Product Specifications
– Preset product or service dimensions, tolerances
– e.g. bottle fill might be 16 oz. ±.2 oz. (15.8oz.-16.2oz.)
– Based on how product is to be used or what the customer expects
• Process Capability – Cp and Cpk
– Assessing capability involves evaluating process variability relative to
preset product or service specifications
– Cp assumes that the process is centered in the specification range

Project Mgt. and Waiting Line
Theory
Critical Path Method (CPM)
•
CPM is an approach to scheduling and controlling project
activities.
•
The critical path is the sequence of activities that take
the longest time and defines the total project completion
time.
•
Rule 1: EF = ES + Time to complete activity
•
Rule 2: the ES time for an activity equals the largest
EF time of all immediate predecessors.
•
Rule 3: LS = LF – Time to complete activity
•
Rule 4: the LF time for an activity is the smallest LS
of all immediate successors.

• The longest path (ABDEGIJK) limits the
project’s duration (project cannot finish in less
time than its longest path)
• ABDEGIJK is the project’s critical path
Adding Feeder Buffers to Critical
Chains
• The theory of constraints, the basis for critical chains, focuses
on keeping bottlenecks busy.
• Time buffers can be put between bottlenecks in the critical path
• These feeder buffers protect the critical path from delays in noncritical paths

Critical Path
Some Network Definitions
• All activities on the critical path have zero slack
• Slack defines how long non-critical activities can be
delayed without delaying the project
• Slack = the activity’s late finish minus its early finish (or
its late start minus its early start)
• Earliest Start (ES) = the earliest finish of the immediately
preceding activity
• Earliest Finish (EF) = is the ES plus the activity time
• Latest Start (LS) and Latest Finish (LF) depend on
whether or not the activity is on the critical path
