Abstract
A method is disclosed wherewith a person skilled in the art of statistical quality control may determine whether a process, a product or a service is statically equivalent to another of known quality, or to a desired known quality. The method may also be used to determine whether multiplicities of products, processes, or services are statistically equivalent to one another and of a desired quality. The method makes the determination based on an equivalency index that is derived from integration of the probability distribution of data of measurement taken from products processes, or services.
