AESTRACTThis paper extends metQods of constructing confounded and lattice designs for the symmetrical factorial to the asymmetrical or mixed factorial. Beside providing unifying techniques some enumeration results are also given along with a fully discussed non-trivial example. In bringing about this extension and unification the usual Galois field theory was modified to ring theory; cyclic collineations as used in £-restrictional lattice designs were adapted to the mixed factorial case.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
