Planning the Connection
Article Abstract:
Microcomputer-based distributed processing offers several benefits. It reduces the mainframe workload, reduces data communications traffic, provides the user with a powerful analytical tool, and facilitates the use of eye-catching graphics. There are, however, two software problems that need to be addressed. First, program-system generators need to become aware of the local processing capabilities of nodes within the network. Second, network architectures should take advantage of a microcomputer's local storage so that unsolicited system messages can be captured for later examination.

Planning time-between-events Shewhart control charts
Article Abstract:
A methodology utilizing Shewhart-type charts is presented to monitor the arrival time between successive counts. The methodology can be applied to any underlying distribution of counts, control limits as well as evaluate sensitivity to the chart. The charts are used in production and administrative processes, but usually they are designed with the proportion of counts occurring in sample intervals.
