Evolutionary Operation : A Statistical Method for Process Improvement (Wiley Classics Library)

Rating:
Summary: reprint of a classic text from the late 1960s
Review: Evolutionary operation is a strategy for experimentation during production. It is a terrific method for continuous process improvement which is now popular in the new quality movement. Surprisingly, though very practical the approach never caught on when the book originally came out! Box and Draper are famous professors of statistics in the Statistics Department at the University of Wisconsin. Both are excellent writers and each has coauthored other very highly regarded texts.

These techniques are worth considering by anyone involved in producing high quality manufacturing processes. This is the only text that covers the topic.
