Abstract

Several models for the economic design of p- and np-charts have been developed where the process can be disturbed by more than one assignable cause. It has been speculated that this multiple causes situation can be converted to the simpler single cause version that yields a matching solution. In this paper, heuristics are developed for determining the matching single cause problem for two multiple causes models. These new heuristics are compared with previously suggested heuristics across a wide range of values for a variety of model parameters.
