Abstract

The issue of uniformity in symmetrical fractional factorial designs is studied in this paper. The so-called discrete discrepancy is employed as a measure of uniformity. In this paper we give linkages between uniformity measured by the discrete discrepancy and minimum moment aberration, which provide a significant statistical justification of the discrete discrepancy.
