    Mid Week Bonus Q

    Its origins can be traced back to the days of this guy below (A)...


    ...when he talked about his research on this...(roughly translates to today's idea of B)


    ...There has been a lot of modifications to the theory. But it was  mainly brought  to light when he [pic below] (C), who is sometimes considered the father of (B)


    ...introduced it in the company (D) whose co-CEO is this dude below


    What am i talking about? (2points)


    Ans. Thunderdog says "A: Carl Friedrich Gauss (of the Gauss theory fame)
    B: Statistical Quality Control (this was the precursor to Six Sigma)
    C: Walter Andrew Shewhart (introduced quality control in Motorola)
    D: Motorola
    the dude: Sanjay Jha

    You are talking about Six Sigma.
    "

    Yes, I was talkin about 6σ. Full points for Six Sigma and/or Statistical Quality Control in your answers

    is it "statistical quality control"?

    pic A - Carl Friedrich Gauss
    pic B - Normal distribution curve (or Bell curve)
    pic C - Dr. W. A. Shewhart, who is considered the father of statistical quality control and introduced it in Motorola.
    pic 4 - co CEO of Motorola.

    carl gauss, normal distribution, bill smith and sanjay jha

    six sigma from motorola

    six sigma

    crybaby said...

    A: Carl gauss

    B: Gaussian distribution

    used by C: Walter Shewhart

    for Bell Labs to design Control Chart

    But D: Sanjay jha is ceo of motorola...how come he is linked???

    Luckily i had a lecture on six sigma recently....
    A: Carl Friedrich Gauss
    the famous mathematician who had significant contributions in statistics.
    B: statistical quality control(or can say six sigma process)
    C: Walter A. Shewhart
    an american physisist, engineer and statistitian
    D: Motorola’s Co-CEO Sanjay K. Jha
    Motorola came into picture because six sigma was developed by motorola

    i'll start with C:Walter Shewhart, who is considered as father of B:Normal Distribution.A:Carl Gauss .remember Gaussian function,Bell shaped curve,D:Sanjay Jha,Motorola-- Six Sigma
