- What is DEO?
- Why perform DEO?
- What are different types of DEO?
- Optimisation vs Exploration? Exploration that we perform is usually performance-driven. However, can also implement pure exploration, which is best with surrogate modelling. However, what's maybe even better is performance-driven surrogate modelling like Opossum does.
- Somewhere we have to talk about single- and multi-objective optimisation and what to take care of when doing multi-objective.
    - Also constraints must be elaborated somewhere

# Important Concepts
