Statistics in quality engineering

Article Abstract:

Ellis R. Ott was a firm believer in the usefulness and the merits ofapplying statistics to quality problems. Being rooted in the scietific method, applied statistics involves making decisions solely on the basis of relevant and properly gathered data. In making decisions based on deduction, statistics allows people to distinguish between real effects and those that occur by chance. Quality engineering combines the benefits of statistical and engineering methods with those of other scientific disciplines to produce goodsthat meet customer demands.
