Building, block, street : residential block design
… imposed by traditional street pattern and block size, is fundamentally anti-urban. Modern American housing of the post-World War II era, like any complex social phenomenon, was influenced by multiple forces. Among the most salient are single proprietary control of large parcels of urban …

A combinatorial switch block design technique for reconfigurable interconnection networks
Switch blocks are fundamental switch components in reconfigurable interconnection networks such as FPGA routing networks and circuit switching communication networks. A switch block consists of a set of terminals usually partitioned into some sides, and programmable switches joining terminals on …

Analysis of variance of a randomized block design with missing observations
… of several missing values in a randomized block design ls considered. The method used ls that of minimizing the error sum of squares, proposed originally by Yates (1933). Explicit equation for each absent value are derived for all cases in which not more than three values are missing. A …

Variation of the Administration of the WISC-III Block Design Subtest
… Center positioning of stimulus materials on the Block Design subtest of the WISC-III. Third graders (16 males; 13 females) and sixth graders (11 males; 19 females) were randomly assigned to conditions, side and center. In the Center condition, the subtest stimulus materials were aligned with the …

Analysis of variance of a balanced incomplete block design with missing observations
… augmented data in a balanced incomplete block design. The estimates are obtained by Yates' procedure of minimizing the error sum of squares. Explicit formulae are obtained for all cases involving not more than two missing values and for several particular configurations of the missing …

A comparative analysis of letter production on correcting electric typewriters versus text-editing typewriters
… quality. A two-factor ANOVA in a randomized block design was used to analyze the data for types of equipment when methods of origination were pooled and for methods of origination when types of equipment were pooled. When types of equipment and methods of origination were examined separately, …

Nearly Balanced and Resolvable Block Designs
… of the fundamental principles of experimental design is the separation of heterogeneous experimental units into subsets of more homogeneous units or <em>blocks</em> in order to isolate identifiable, unwanted, but unavoidable, variation in measurements made from the units. Given <em>v</em> …

Incorporation of phase changes in functional magnetic resonance imaging
… magnitude and phase changes in group data in a block-design motor tapping task and in an event-related auditory oddball task. We also look at any additional processing steps that might be required for phase. The results for both block-design and event-related tasks indicate the presence of task …

Interference of Common Cocklebur (Xanthium Strumarium L.) and Velvetleaf (Abutilon Theophrasti Medic.) With Soybean Stands at Different Densities and Planting Patterns
… 1987 at Urbana, Illinois. A randomized complete block design with 3 x 7 split-plot arrangements, having four replications was used. Weed treatments assigned to the main plots were: weed-free; common cocklebur; and velvetleaf. And seven subplots were soybean stands: control (26.22 plants/m row), …
