Properties of multivariate Shewhart and EWMA (Exponentially Weighted Moving Average) control charts for monitoring variance-covariance matrix of quality variables are investigated. Performances of the proposed charts are evaluated for matched fixed sampling interval (FSI) and variable sampling interval (VSI) charts in terms of average time to signal (ATS) and average number of samples to signal (ANSS). Average number of swiches (ANSW) of the proposed VSI charts are also investigated.

Some switching properties of multivariate control charts are investigated when the interval between two consecutive sample selections is not fixed but changes according to the result of the previous sample observation. Many articles showed that the performances of variable sampling interval control charts are more efficient than those of fixed sampling interval control charts in terms of average run length (ARL) and average time to signal (ATS). Unfortunately, the ARL and the ATS do not provide any information on how frequent a switch is being made. We evaluate several switching properties of two sampling interval Shewhart and CUSUM procedures for controlling mean vector of correlated quality variables.

In industrial quality control, when engineers use VSI control procedure they should consider both required time to signal and switching behaviors together in the case of production process changed. Up to the present, many researchers have studied fixed sampling interval (FSI) chart and variable sampling interval (VSI) chart in the points of average number of samples to signal (ANSS) and average time to signal (ATS). However, ANSS and ATS do not provide any switching information between different sampling intervals of VSI schemes. In this study, performances of two sampling intervals VSI chart and three sampling intervals VSI chart are evaluated and compared. The numerical results show that ANSS and ATS values of two sampling intervals VSI chart and three sampling interval VSI chart are similar regardless the amount of shifts. However, the values of switching behaviors including ANSW are less efficient in three sampling intervals VSI charts than in two sampling intervals VSI chart.

Theoretical and numerical comparison have shown that variable sampling interval (VSI) charts are substantially more efficient than fixed sampling interval(FSI) charts in term of ATS(average time to signal). But the frequency of switching between different sampling intervals is a complicating factor in VSI procedures. VSI EWMA charts for monitoring mean vector of related qualify characteristics are investigated. To compare the efficiencies of the proposed charts, the performances are evaluated for matched FSI and VSI charts in terms of average time to signal(ATS) and average number of samples to signal(ANSS). For the switching behavior of the proposed VSI charts, average number of switches(ANSW) are also investigated.

Multivariate exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts for monitoring the variance-covariance matrix are investigated. A variable sampling interval (VSI) feature is considered in these charts. Multivariate EWMA control charts for monitoring the variance-covariance matrix are compared on the basis of their average time to signal (ATS) performances. The numerical results show that multivariate VSI EWMA control charts are more efficient than corrsponding multivariate fixed sampling interval (FSI) EWMA control charts.

Properties of multivariate variable sampling interval (VSI) Shewhart and CUSUM charts for monitoring mean vector of related quality variables are investigated. To evaluate average time to signal (ATS) and average number of switches (ANSW) of the proposed charts, Markov chain approaches and simulations are applied. Performances of the proposed charts are also investigated both when the process is in-control and when it is out-of-control.

The variable sampling rates scheme is proposed by taking random sample size and sampling interval during the process. The performance of the scheme is measured in terms of the average time to signal adjusted by teh sampling cost when the process is out of control. This measurement evaluates the effectiveness of the scheme in terms of the cost incurred due to nonconformation as well as sampling. The variable sampling rates scheme is shown to be effective especially for small and moderate shifts of the mean when compared to the standard scheme.

Properties of the variable sampling interval(VSI) CUSUM chart for monitoring dispersion matrix of related quality characteristics are investigated. Performances of the proposed charts are evaluated for matched fixed sampling interval(FSI) and VSI charts in terms of average time to signal(ATS) and average number of samples to signal (ANSS). Average number of swiches(ANSW) of the proposed VSI Shewhart and CUSUM charts are also investigated.

Because of the equivalence between control chart procedures and hypothesis testing, we propose to use likelihood ratio test (LRT) statistic $Z_i^2$ as the multivariate control statistic for simultaneous monitoring means of the multivariate normal process. Properties and comparisons of the proposed control charts are explored and conducted for matched fixed sampling interval (FSI) and variable sampling interval (VSI) with two sampling interval charts. The result of numerical comparisons shows that EWMA chart with two sampling interval procedure is more efficient than the corresponding FSI chart for small or moderate changes. When large shift of the process has occurred, we also found that Shewhart chart is more efficient than EWMA chart.
