Quality 4.0 involves leveraging Industry 4.0 advancements like the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and big data to enhance products and services. This encompasses employing sensors and data analysis to oversee production processes in real time, detect flaws, and enhance effectiveness. The objective of Quality 4.0 is to attain elevated standards of product excellence, customer contentment, and operational efficiency by harnessing sophisticated technologies. Quality 4.0 can be applied across diverse sectors such as manufacturing, and service industries. In manufacturing, for instance, Quality 4.0 solutions enable real-time monitoring of production processes, defect detection, and efficiency enhancement. This entails utilising sensors, IoT devices, and data analytics to monitor production data and pinpoint areas ripe for improvement. The aim of this book is to introduce the issues of Quality 4.0 to both academic teachers and students. The book was designed to complement the rich literature in the field of quality management. It can be used as an additional guide or textbook for students. The book consists of four chapters. The book is one of the results of the international project “Improving quality management teaching in the era of Industry 4.0”. The project was co-financed by the Governments of Czechia, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia through Visegrad Grants from International Visegrad Fund. The mission of the fund is to advance ideas for sustainable regional cooperation in Central Europe.

Creating business process models that can be shared effectively across the business - and between business and IT - demands more than a digest of BPMN shapes and symbols. It requires a step-by-step methodology for going from a blank page to a complete process diagram. It also requires consistent application of a modeling style, so that the modeler's meaning is clear from the diagram itself. Author Bruce Silver explains not only the meaning and proper usage of the entire BPMN 2.0 palette, but calls out the working subset that you really need to know. He also reveals the hidden assumptions of core concepts left unexplained in the spec, the key to BPMN's deeper meaning. The book addresses BPMN at three levels, with primary focus on the first two. Level 1, or descriptive BPMN, uses a basic working set of shapes and symbols to meet the needs of business users doing process mapping. Level 2, or analytical BPMN, is aimed at business analysts and architects. It takes advantage of BPMN's expressiveness for detailing event and exception handling, key to analyzing and improving process performance and quality. Level 3, or executable BPMN, is brand new in BPMN 2.0. Here the XML underneath the diagram shapes becomes an executable design can be deployed to a process engine to automate the process. The method and style detailed in the book aligns these three levels, facilitating business-IT collaboration throughout the process lifecycle. Inside the book you'll find discussions, illustrated with over 100 examples, about: The questions BPMN asks, and does not ask The meaning of basic concepts like starting and completing, sending and receiving, waiting and listening Subprocesses and hierarchical modeling style The five basic steps in creating Level 1 models Event and exception-handling patterns Branching and merging patterns Level 2 modeling method Elements of BPMN style: element usage and diagram composition

This includes in particular new technologies such as in-memory data and process management, social media and networks. A further focus of this revised and extended edition is on the actual deployment of the proposed theoretical concepts. This volume includes a number of entire new chapters from some of the world's leading experts in the domain of BPM.
