Convergence Foundations of Topology
Szymon Dolecki, Burgundy University and Frédéric D. Mynard, Georgia Southern University
1-1-2009
Book Summary: The textbook is an alternative to a classical introductory book in point-set topology. The approach, however, is radically different from the classical one. It is based on convergence rather than on open and closed sets. On the one hand, convergence of filters is a natural generalization of the basic and well-known concept of convergence of sequences, so that convergence theory is more natural and intuitive to many, perhaps most, students than classical topology. On the other hand, the framework of convergence is easier, more powerful and far-reaching which highlights a need for a theory of convergence in various ... Read more

Encyclopedia of Statistics in Quality and Reliability
Charles W. Champ, Georgia Southern University and Deborah K. Shepherd, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga
1-1-2007
Chapter Summary: Control charts for controlling the process mean are affected by changes in the process standard deviation. Therefore it is important to also control the process standard deviation. Various control charting methods have been developed for this purpose. Two commonly recommended statistical methods for controlling the process standard deviation are the moving range (MR) and the range (R) charts. The designs of MR and R charts are discussed in this article and each is illustrated with an example.
