Pareto-Optimality and the Desirability Index are methods for multicriteria optimization in quality management. In this paper the pareto-optimality of the optimal influence factor settings of a process resulting from maximizing the DI is analyzed and is shown to be valid in most cases.

The Desirability Index (DI) is a widely used method for multicriteria optimization in industrial quality control, by which optimal levels of the process influencing factors are determined in order to archieve maximum process quality. In practice however situations may occur in which slight...
