Abstract
Control chart limits are often calculated using parameter estimates from an in-control Phase I reference sample. In Phase II monitoring, statistics based on new samples are compared with the estimated control limits to monitor for departures from the in-control state. Many studies to evaluate control chart performance in Phase II assume that in-control parameters are known, although it is known that additional variability introduced through parameter estimation affects the performance of the chart. A review of the literature is given that considers the effect of parameter estimation on control chart properties. Recommendations and ideas for future research are given.
