title: 'blockedFF: Generation of Blocked Fractional Factorial Designs (Two-Level and
  Three-Level)'
version: 0.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.blockedFF
abstract: Provides computational tools to generate efficient blocked and unblocked
  fractional factorial designs for two-level and three-level factors using the generalized
  Minimum Aberration (MA) criterion and related optimization algorithms. Methodological
  foundations include the general theory of minimum aberration as described by Cheng
  and Tang (2005) <https://doi.org/10.1214/009053604000001228>, and the catalogue
  of three-level regular fractional factorial designs developed by Xu (2005) <https://doi.org/10.1007/s00184-005-0408-x>.
  The main functions dol2() and dol3() generate blocked two-level and three-level
  fractional factorial designs, respectively, using beam search, optimization-based
  ranking, confounding assessment, and structured output suitable for complete factorial
  situations.
