Conference on Experimental Design and Analysis (CEDA) 2014

Experimentation is one of the most common activities in scientific researches and industrial processes. An experiment is cost-efficient only when it is carefully designed and its results are correctly analyzed. The CEDA 2014 Conference will highlight the most recent advances in the discipline and demonstrate their applicability to practitioners in scientific and industrial communities. In addition, it provides an excellent platform to share research ideas among senior mentors, junior researchers and fresh Ph.D. students/graduates.
