A business process modeling framework is used for data quality analysis. The modeling framework represents the sources of transactions entering the information processing system, the various tasks within the process that manipulate or transform these transactions, and the data repositories in which the transactions are stored or aggregated. A subset of these tasks is associated as the potential error introduction sources, and the rate and magnitude of various error classes at each such task are probabilistically modeled. This model can be used to predict how changes in transactions volumes and business processes impact data quality at the aggregate level in the data repositories. The model can also account for the presence of error correcting controls and assess how the placement and effectiveness of these controls alter the propagation and aggregation of errors. Optimization techniques are used for the placement of error correcting controls that meet target quality requirements while minimizing the cost of operating these controls. This analysis also contributes to the development of business “dashboards” that allow decision-makers to monitor and react to key performance indicators (KPIs) based on aggregation of the transactions being processed. Data quality estimation in real time provides the accuracy of these KPIs (in terms of the probability that a KPI is above or below a given value), which may condition the action undertaken by the decision-maker.

A system and method of providing comprehensive document review, production and reporting is described. The system and method provide a total quality management approach to a document review matter that not only controls costs but increases defensibility of the overall process, thereby reducing risk. The system utilizes unique review and performance metrics, increases quality control, and enhances physical and data security mechanisms. The system of the present invention can be implemented with any document review software or hosted platform desired for use by a customer.

The invention relates to the field of offshore oil engineering and provides an oceanographic engineering quality control information system. The oceanographic engineering quality control information system comprises a management setting module, a construction quality managing module, a debugging quality managing module, a file managing module and a statistical analyzing module, wherein the management setting module is used for setting a user login password and authorities of a user, setting essential data and preserving welder qualifications; the construction quality managing module is used for determining construction quality acceptance when monitors that information input by a general contractor is examined and approved by an owner party and a third party; the debugging quality managing module is used for acquiring the information input by the general contractor and recording left problems for subsequent elimination; the file managing module is used for uploading, checking and downloading item information; and the statistical analyzing module is used for extracting various data input in the earlier stages according to a user command and giving an analysis result. The oceanographic engineering quality control information system is capable of finishing daily quality inspection work, performing real-time quality information statistics, collecting the statistical information and generating weekly reports and monthly reports needed in working automatically, and the aid of the oceanographic engineering quality control information system, traditional paper file transmission can be replaced to achieve automatic real-time data statistics, so that efficiency in quality management is improved greatly.

Through a database, statistical analysis is carried out for information related to quality of tobacco leaves. Each index of tobacco leaves can be obtained expediently. Thus, the method is in favor of making correct evaluation for quality, raising work efficiency and strengthening information circulation among producing areas. Through analyzing environment, diversified tastes of products of tobacco, the invention raises quality and quantity of fragrance and industrial usability correctly and effectively so as to provide quality assurance and data support for research and development of product.

The invention discloses a quality management system for finished automobile production and manufacturing. The system is composed of a quality dictionary module, a quality planning module, a quality inspection module, and a quality control module. The quality dictionary module is used for carrying out quantification processing on characteristic attributes, defect types, coding rules of different batches, and national standards of inspection items during a production and manufacturing process and constructing essential data by using an integrated and standardized description as criteria for later-period inspection. The quality planning module is used for creating targeted inspection plans based on business demands and inspection objects. The quality inspection module is used for applying designated inspection plans to specific inspection objects based on inspection plans created in the quality planning, collecting quality data and synchronizing the data to a server side to complete product quality inspection. The quality control module is used for completing inspection on the specific inspection objects in quality inspection and realizing quality control on the same batches of inspection objects with the same batch number prefix positions.

A system for providing automatic quality management regarding a level of conformity to a specific accent, including, a recording system, a statistical model database with statistical models representing speech data of different levels of conformity to a specific accent, a speech analysis system, a quality management system. Wherein the recording system is adapted to record one or more samples of a speakers speech and provide it to the speech analysis system for analysis, and wherein the speech analysis system is adapted to provide a score of the speakers speech samples to the quality management system by analyzing the recorded speech samples relative to the statistical models in the statistical model database.

A method, system and program product to manage total inventory. Existing inventory, optimum inventory, excess inventory and inventory consumption are calculated according to different sets of data regarding whether one is considering a policy inventory and / or a manufacturing limitation. Results of the calculations with different sets of data are compared to determine an impact of the policy inventory and an inventory trapped in manufacturing. This invention has application in the microelectronics industry as well as other industries.
