Abstract A modified exponentially weighted moving
average (EWMA) scheme expanded from an EWMA chart
is an instrument for immediate detection on a small shifted
size. The objective of this research is to suggest the average
run length (ARL) with the explicit formula on a modified
EWMA control chart for observations of a seasonal
autoregressive model of order p
th
(SAR(p)
L
) with
exponential residual. A numerical integral equation
method is brought to approximate ARL for checking an
accuracy of explicit formulas. The results of two methods
show that their ARL solutions are close and the percentage
of the absolute relative change (ARC) is obtained to less
than 0.002. Furthermore, the modified EWMA chart with
the SAR(p)
L
model is tested to shift detection when the
parameters c and λ are changed. The ARL and the
relative mean index (RMI) results are found to be better
when c and λ are increased. In addition, the modified
EWMA control chart is compared to performance with the
EWMA scheme and such that their results encourage the
modified EWMA chart for a small shift. Finally, this
explicit formula can be applied to various real-world data.
For example, two data about information and
communication technology are used for the validation and
the capability of our techniques.

1. Introduction
A control chart is one of the instruments for Statistical
Process Control (SPC). The ordinary control charts are
well known such as a Shewhart control chart [1], an
exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) chart
[2], a cumulative sum (CUSUM) scheme [3]. A Shewhart
chart is the basis of a control chart that detected a large
shift on 3-sigma control limits speedily. Next, EWMA
and CUSUM control charts are developed to a small shift
detection appropriately. For the EWMA control chart,
many recent works of literature were found to this chart
usage, for example, Li et al. [4] introduced the EWMA
control chart to invent the transient patterns of motivation
and potential of specifying seasonal faster motivation.
Moreover, Nawaz et al. [5] presented the EWMA control
chart by integrating multiscale principal component
analysis for improving the monitoring efficiently and
detecting an online multiscale mistake. Recently, Hu and
Liu [6] detected the positive shifts of zero-inflated poisson
models by using a weighted score test statistic on an
upper-sided exponentially weighted moving average
control chart.
Meanwhile, the EWMA control chart is improved to a
performance by many researchers. One of them is the
modified EWMA control chart which was originally
presented by Patel and Divecha [7] and developed by
Khan et al. [8]. The modified EWMA statistic is expanded
by adding a multiple of a previous shift term and a
constant c for an abrupt detection of autocorrelated
observations. The modified EWMA control chart was
continuously studied in various literature [9-11].
For the ability comparison of control charts, one of the
well-known measurements is the average run length (ARL)
[12] presented by using numerous calculations such as a
