* For continuity throughout the series, Figures and Tables are numbered in succession. Figure 1 and Table I appeared in Part
I of this article series. Figures 2–8 and Table II appeared in Part II.
** "Factor" is synonymous with "x," input, variable. A process parameter can be a factor as can an input material. For simplicity
and consistency, "factor" is used throughout the paper. "Response" is synonymous with "y" and output. Here, "response" is
either the critical quality attribute (CQA) or the surrogate for the CQA. For consistency, "response" is used throughout the
paper.
