Tools for Computer-Aided Design of Experiments

Abstract

Computer packages have long been available to aid in the analysis of data. Only recently has the value of the computer in the data collection phase been recognized. This recognition has led to a proliferation of programs for the design of experiments. In this paper we review statistical developments that have made access to computing an integral part of experimental planning, describe programs currently available and comment on their utility.
