תקציר	Deterministic Sensitivity Analysis (DSA) tests how model outputs change when individual or combined input parameters are varied across plausible ranges, one at a time or in structured combinations, without invoking probabilistic sampling. It is the standard approach in economic modeling, decision trees, and mathematical programming to identify which parameters drive conclusions and to demonstrate model robustness to regulators, reviewers, and stakeholders.	MONTE-CARLO-SIMULATION (Monte Carlo Simulation — Stochastic uncertainty propagation through MCDM model) is a ranking multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method introduced by Metropolis, N., Ulam, S. in 1949. It turns a decision matrix of alternatives scored on multiple criteria into a structured, reproducible result.	Stochastic Sensitivity Analysis (PSA) extends classical one-at-a-time sensitivity testing by representing uncertain model inputs as probability distributions and propagating them through the model via Monte Carlo sampling. The result is a full distribution of possible outputs, together with rankings of which inputs drive output variance the most — enabling robust, evidence-grounded conclusions under uncertainty.
