In this paper, we extend the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) technique to double exponentially weighted moving average (DEWMA) technique. We show that DEWMA mean charts perform better than EWMA mean charts in detecting small mean shifts ranging from 0.1 to 0.5 of the process standard deviation, and that the two types of charts perform similarly when mean shifts are larger than 0.5 standard deviation. The design of DEWMA mean charts is also discussed.
