Two-level orthogonal design is called a fractional factorial design. These designs require the selection of p independent generators. Although the Plackett-Burman design is more efficient than two-level orthogonal design, it can be inefficient for some cases such as 15-factors. It causes from the failure of balance.
AutoDesign provides the strength-II orthogonal design such as fractional factorial design, which generates the table automatically. Table 1 lists the number of trials for available factors.
