Abstract :
The software package contains both usual and new acceptance sampling procedures (essentially by variables) especially for instrumentation and automatic test systems. The main newer procedures implemented in this package are: * By attributes: with finite lot sizes, with classification errors * By variables: bilateral test of the mean measurement, nonparametric sequential, Bayes with minimization of the mean global cost, multidimensional measurements on each sample item, with provision for the internal structure of the items. This software package is aimed at implementation on microprocessors or personal computers, for acceptance sampling by variables and for data logging of measurements. The past four years during which the package has been in use, have been very positive, especially for those applications to electronic instrumentation and automatic test systems, where more standard methods were unsatisfactory or unfit.
