(130a) Variables Search: A Great Experimental Design for Troubleshooting Complex Systems
Author
Variables Search is a little-known Design of Experiments technique that is easy to learn and use, and has a number of advantages over other DoE techniques, including the fact that far fewer experiments are required to learn about or troubleshoot complex systems. Variables Search will be compared to several other, better known DoE techniques to demonstrate its benefits. The 3 phases of the technique, including tips and tricks, will be explained using real life examples.
