A literature review on joint control schemes in statistical process monitoring

Process monitoring is regarded as a continuous phenomenon requiring careful consideration to acquire an enhanced output quality. Dispersion and location are significant parameters in the entire process, and timely detection of the changes that occur in a stable process is needed. Today, quality practitioners recommend using a single charting setup offering better capability of detecting joint changes in the parameters of a process. As provided in the literature, a detailed review paper for simultaneous monitoring is conducted in 2013 which many reaserchers were attracted to publish papers in this field. In this paper, a meticulous content analysis (on the basis of 59 reviewed papers in the field of joint monitoring from 2013 to 2021) is exploited to classify the papers that includes joint control charts for statistical process monitoring (SPM), to identify the potential topics and present some suggestions for further studies in simultaneous monitoring.
