This comprehensive, accessible reference contains all the facts on combinatorial designs. It includes constructions of designs, existence results and properties of designs. Organized into six main parts, The CRC Handbook of Combinatorial Designs covers block design; orthogonal arrays and latin squares; pairwise balanced designs; association schemes; mappings and sequencings; costas arrays; factorial designs; partial geometries; extensive applications of design theory; experimental design; coding theory; cryptography; and general reference tools used for design theory. Although the text emphasizes basic information on combinatorial design, it includes material at the research frontier, maintaining a balance of topics for those actively involved in research.
