Pareto diagram (alternatively known as Pareto chart; hereinafter, the Diagram) is a quality-control tool that represents a histogram, ordered by frequency of occurrence, that shows how many results were generated by each identified cause.
Definitions
According to Managing Quality by Foster (6th edition),
- Pareto chart. Chart used to identify and prioritize problems to be solved.
According to Cost Accounting by Horngren, Datar, Rajan (14th edition),
- Pareto diagram. Chart that indicates how frequently each type of defect occurs, ordered from the most frequent to the least frequent.
According to the HRBoK Guide,
- Pareto chart. Chart that shows most frequently occurring items. A vertical bar graph in which values are plotted in decreasing order of frequency, from left to right; often used in quality control.
