Quality Monitoring System

A Quality Monitoring System is a monitoring system that tracks quality measures over time periods.

• AKA: Quality Tracking System, Quality Surveillance System, Quality Observation System, QMS.
• Context:
  • It can typically collect Quality Data through monitoring sensors.
  • It can typically generate Quality Reports via data analysis.
  • It can often trigger Alert Mechanisms upon threshold violation.
  • It can often support Quality Improvement Processes with trend analysis.
  • It can range from being a Real-Time Quality Monitoring System to being a Batch Quality Monitoring System, depending on its processing mode.
  • It can range from being a Single-Metric Quality Monitoring System to being a Multi-Metric Quality Monitoring System, depending on its metric scope.
  • It can range from being a Passive Quality Monitoring System to being an Active Quality Monitoring System, depending on its intervention capability.
  • It can range from being a Local Quality Monitoring System to being a Distributed Quality Monitoring System, depending on its deployment architecture.
  • ...
• Examples:
  • Manufacturing Quality Monitoring Systems, such as:
    • Production Line Quality Monitor for defect detection.
    • Product Quality Monitor for standard compliance.
  • Service Quality Monitoring Systems, such as:
    • Customer Service Quality Monitor for satisfaction tracking.
    • Network Service Quality Monitor for performance measurement.
  • Exemplar Canary Mechanism as a specialized quality monitor.
  • ...
• Counter-Examples:
  • Performance Monitoring System, which tracks speed rather than quality.
  • Security Monitoring System, which watches threats rather than quality.
  • Static Analysis System, which lacks continuous monitoring.
