Decision Rules
Henry Zumbrun, President of Morehouse Instrument Company, explores the complex world of decision rules in metrology with an unconventional twist. His article, "The Force of Decision Rules: Applying Specific and Global Risk to Star Wars," featured in the January issue of Quality Magazine, uses the Star Wars saga to shed light on the subject.
Quality Magazine, a leading voice for quality professionals, includes this piece in its January 2024 issue.
The magazine addresses the evolving needs of quality experts.
Zumbrun's article parallels the Force in Star Wars and decision rules in metrology.
"Decision rules are the Force of metrology. They guide us in making accurate and precise measurements, even in the face of uncertainty," says Zumbrun. Through this analogy, he aims to simplify the complexities of decision rules and make them accessible to all.
By incorporating "Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope" examples, Zumbrun delves into specific and global risk examples related to decision rules. His goal is to demystify these concepts and provide a clear understanding that professionals can apply in their metrology work.
