NESTED BALANCED TERNARY, QUATERNARY AND PARTIALLY BALANCED TERNARY RECTANGULAR DESIGNS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS
Keywords:
Balanced Incomplete Block (BIB) Design, Incidence Matrix, Nested Balanced Ternary (NBT) Design, Nested Balanced Quaternary (NBQ) Design, Partially Balanced Ternary Rectangular (PBTR) DesignAbstract
This paper is concerned with the recursive construction of nested balanced ternary (NBT), nested balanced quaternary (NBQ) and partially balanced ternary rectangular (PBTR) designs through a set of balanced incomplete block (BIB) designs. An illustrative example in each case has been added separately. The efficiency of NBT and NBQ designs has also been computed.
