  8. Parts-per notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts-per_notation

    In science and engineering, the parts-per notation is a set of pseudo-units to describe small values of miscellaneous dimensionless quantities, e.g. mole fraction or mass fraction. Since these fractions are quantity-per-quantity measures, they are pure numbers with no associated units of measurement. Commonly used are parts-per-million (ppm, 10 ...

  9. Western Electric rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Electric_rules

    The Western Electric rules are decision rules in statistical process control for detecting out-of-control or non-random conditions on control charts. [1] Locations of the observations relative to the control chart control limits (typically at ±3 standard deviations) and centerline indicate whether the process in question should be investigated for assignable causes.
