Title: Post-Fisherian Experimentation: From Physical to Virtual

Abstract

Fisher's pioneering work in design of experiments has inspired further work with broader applications, especially in industrial experimentation. Three topics in physical experiments are discussed: principles of effect hierarchy, sparsity, and heredity for factorial designs, a new method called CME for de-aliasing aliased effects, and robust parameter design. The recent emergence of virtual experiments on a computer is reviewed. Here, some major challenges in computer experiments, which must go beyond Fisherian principles, are outlined.
