.... The proposed method, Assembly Quality Methodology (AQM), uses the conventional assembly evaluation method along with a set of equations to predict defect rates for different assemblies at various manufacturing sites. AQM relates defect rates with the complexity metrics calculated using existing assembly...

... Abstract This paper describes the development of the quantitative predictor of defects that works not only on the whole product but also on its modular units. The authors divide the assembly process of a product into small modules, and apply the Assembly Quality Methodology (AQM) to determine...
