Abstract Numerous methods are available for the graphical display of radioimmunoassay dose—response curves, for curve-fitting and dose interpolation, for statistical quality control, and for automation and computerization of data processing. The relative merits of these approaches are discussed. Minimal requirements for radioimmunoassay data-processing systems are presented. The features of an "ideal" system are discussed.

The purpose of the paper is to outline the numerous directions in which improvements can be sought in engineering inspection. It shows how direct improvements in efficiency can be effected by carefully planned methods of recording results, including the use of statistical quality control, by adopting the principles of time and motion study in the planning of flow of work through inspection, and in the design of gauging fixtures and the arrangement of gauges. The importance of correct personnel selection and organization is stressed, as is also the avoidance of duplication of inspection. The paper concludes by quoting figures showing the substantial reductions which have been achieved in the authors' company by a progressive application of the methods described over a period of several years.
