Integrated Computer Controlled Sensor Monitor, Tariq Hafeez Malik Jan 1993

Integrated Computer Controlled Sensor Monitor, Tariq Hafeez Malik

Theses : Honours

This research has developed an Integrated Computer Controlled Sensor Monitor (ICCSM) environment, to monitor and analyse alarm events associated with sensors, including an interface between a PC and a number of detectors. Such an environment will help the security industry analyse the factors causing false alarms at particular locations. The ICCSM environment monitors, and records, alarm data. Knowing exactly which sensor has been activated, and its location, is of paramount importance to the effective deployment of response forces and making the identification of causes of spurious alarms easier. The lCCSM environment is a combination of software and general purpose hardware, …


Construction Of Process Control Charts Using Asymmetric Data, Bruce Sivwright Jan 1993

Construction Of Process Control Charts Using Asymmetric Data, Bruce Sivwright

Theses : Honours

As part of my undergraduate degree I studied various areas in quality control. Included in these areas of study was the concept of control charts, which are becoming increasingly more important in industry for effective manufacturing processes. The general form for constructing a control chart assumes that the outcomes of the process conform to a normal distribution. Data gathered at an industrial site in Western Australia illustrates that this is not always the case. The distribution of the data collected for a specific manufacturing process was found to be significantly different from the normal distribution, in that it was right …
