Rezumat	Simulation-assisted quality function deployment (SA-QFD) integrates computational simulation into the classic QFD framework to replace or supplement costly physical prototypes when evaluating how engineering design decisions satisfy customer requirements. By embedding simulation models — such as finite element analysis, discrete-event simulation, or system dynamics — within the House of Quality matrix, engineers can rapidly quantify the impact of technical characteristics on customer satisfaction and iteratively refine design priorities before committing to production.	Simulation-assisted design of experiments (SA-DoE) integrates computational simulation tools — such as finite element analysis (FEA), computational fluid dynamics (CFD), or discrete-event simulation — with classical DoE principles to systematically explore the factor space of a system. Rather than running costly or hazardous physical trials, researchers execute a structured set of virtual experiments across selected factor combinations, then fit a surrogate model to the simulation outputs to understand main effects, interactions, and optimal settings.
