Summary

FROZEN FOOD QUALITY CHANGE WAS PRESENTED GRAPHICALLY AS A RESPONSE PARAMETER TO THE STORAGE VARIABLES TIME AND TEMPERATURE. COMPUTER GRAPHICS WERE USED TO PORTRAY SENSORY CHANGES IN FROZEN HAMBURGER DURING STORAGE. THE RESULTING THREE-DIMENSIONAL SURFACE (A < QUALITY-RESPONSE SURFACE >) WAS SIMPLIFIED BY CONTOUR PLOTTING AND THE RESPONSES OF BOTH FULL-AND PARTIAL-HISTORY TIME-TEMPERATURE INDICATORS WERE SUPERIMPOSED. EXAMPLES OF THE RESULTING INDICATOR ACTION DIAGRAM WERE DEVELOPED FOR FROZEN HAMBURGER.
