Quality Management Tools: PDCA, Q7, and M7 Methods
Quality Management Techniques
PDCA Cycle (Deming Wheel)
The PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle, also known as the Deming Wheel, is a quality-management method that illustrates problem identification and resolution. The core principle is based on continuous improvement:
- Plan: Plan and prepare.
- Do: Implement the plan.
- Check: Monitor and verify the results.
- Act: Take corrective actions based on the findings.
Q7: Problem-Solving Tools
The Q7 tools are a set of basic quality control tools used for problem-solving

Key Concepts of Information Systems
1. Entity-Relationship (ER) Model
The Entity-Relationship (ER) model is based on a perception of the real world, consisting of basic objects called entities and the relationships between them.
An Entity is an object distinguishable from other objects by a specific set of attributes.
2. Register-Based Logical Models
Register-based logical models describe data in conceptual and physical models. These models specify the overall logical structure of the database (DB) and
