Almost designs and their links with balanced incomplete block designs [PDF]
Almost designs ($t$-adesigns) were proposed and discussed by Ding as a certain generalization of combinatorial designs related to almost difference sets. Unlike $t$-designs, it is not clear whether $t$-adesigns need also be $(t-1)$-designs or $(t-1)$-adesigns.

Augmented BIB Design-An Alternative Statistical Design in Germplasm Evaluation Trials
Randomized Block Design (RBD) is commonly employed to evaluate a set of germplasm accessions (test treatments) along with local checks. In such a trial, if the test treatments under evaluation are more in number and the availability of the seeds is ...

New Combinatorial Construction Techniques for Low-Density Parity-Check Codes and Systematic Repeat-Accumulate Codes [PDF]
This paper presents several new construction techniques for low-density parity-check (LDPC) and systematic repeat-accumulate (RA) codes. Based on specific classes of combinatorial designs, the improved code design focuses on high-rate structured codes ...

Prime-number-assisted block-based neighbor discovery protocol in wireless sensor networks
During the initial deployment time, wireless sensors continually search their neighbors. The neighbor discovery is not an one-time event because the network topology can be changed anytime due to node mobility and failure. The neighbor discovery protocol

Remarks on balanced incomplete block designs [PDF]
PROOF. Assume the hypothesis and the falsity of either conclusion. Construct matrix A of 2x+2 rows and 4x+4 columns, with entries + 1 and - 1. The first column contains exclusively + 1, and the second column - 1. Set up one-to-one correspondences between rows of A and elements of D; between columns other than the first two of A and blocks of D. Enter +
