Education and Training: e-Handbook/Dataplot Demonstration

Time and Location NIST-SEMATECH e-Handbook of Statistical Methods and DATAPLOT: an Interactive Demonstration
Dennis Leber and
Alan Heckert
Statistical Engineering Division, NIST
Wednesday September 29, 2004
12:30pm - 3:30pm
ACSL, Conference Room A202
Abstract The NIST/SEMATECH e-Handbook of Statistical Methods is a Web-based book whose goal is to help scientists and engineers incorporate statistical methods into their work as efficiently as possible. It is hoped that the e-Handbook will serve as a useful educational tool that will help users of statistical methods and consumers of statistical information better understand statistical procedures and their underlying assumptions and more clearly interpret scientific and engineering results stated in statistical terms. The e-Handbook has been integrated with the Dataplot statistical software.

The e-Handbook demo will be presented in two parts. The first part will be an introduction to the e-Handbook. We will cover the basic chapters (exploratory data analysis, measurement process characterization, production process characterization, process modeling, process improvement, process or product monitoring and control, product and process comparison, and process reliability). We will demonstrate running the case studies with the Dataplot software. The second part of the demo will be a brief introduction to the Dataplot software. You are invited to bring a few sample data sets on a floppy drive or CD-R.

Comments on Course Initial sessions of the Tutorial are intended for specific NIST groups and are open by invitation only with a maximum of 10 participants per session. Subsequent sessions will be open to all interested NIST personnel.
