Abstract

We provide some unifying definitions, make some corrections to articles by Faraz and Parsian (J Stat Pap 47:569–593, 2006) and Costa (J Qual Technol 26:155–163, 1994; 29:197–204, 1997), and using these provide more accurate tables of results and comparisons of control charts. We also investigate the impact of an incorrectly specified process shift on signal frequency.
