Abstract

An exemplary embodiment of the invention is a method for evaluating a product design. The method includes specifying a plurality of factors (44) related to the product and specifying a plurality of responses (46) affected by said factors. A design of experiments routine is performed to generate design of experiments data relating factors to the responses. Regression is performed to generate a transfer function in response to the design of experiments data. The transfer function is optimized in response to user-defined optimization criteria to generate an optimized factor and an optimized response. The optimized factor and optimized response are then displayed.
