Muhtasari	Optimization-assisted process capability analysis combines classical capability indices (Cp, Cpk, Cpm) with mathematical optimization to identify process parameter settings that simultaneously satisfy engineering specifications and maximize process capability. Rather than simply measuring whether a process is capable, it prescribes the control factor levels — mean, variance, tolerances — that push capability above a target threshold. It is widely applied in manufacturing, chemical processing, and quality engineering contexts where multiple process variables must be tuned jointly.	Six Sigma DMAIC is a data-driven, five-phase process improvement methodology — Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, and Control — used to reduce defects and process variation to fewer than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. Originating at Motorola in the 1980s and systematized by practitioners including Pyzdek and Keller, it is widely adopted in manufacturing, healthcare, finance, and service industries seeking sustained quality gains.
