Abstract
An exemplary embodiment of the invention is directed to a method for determining a transfer function relating a critical to quality parameter to key parameters in a design for six sigma process. The method includes determining a dimensionless group containing a plurality of key parameters. The key parameters may include key control parameters or key noise parameters that have an affect on the critical to quality parameter. A transfer function relating the dimensionless group to the critical to quality parameter is then generated.
