Abstract

We review major developments in the design of experiments, offer our thoughts on important directions for the future, and make specific recommendations for experimenters and statisticians who are students and teachers of experimental design, practitioners of experimental design, and researchers jointly exploring new frontiers. Specific topics covered are optimal design, computer-aided design, robust design, response surface design, mixture design, factorial design, block design, and designs for nonlinear models.
