The ABCs of ADX: A Solution for Design and Analysis of Experiments
Brenda Ramirez and Jose Ramirez, SUGI Proceedings, 2001


Abstract

The ADX Interface is intended for engineers, scientists, and other researchers who require a point-and-click solution for designing and analyzing experiments to improve processes and products. You will find this tutorial helpful if you use designed experiments in your own work, or if you provide SAS support for experimental work in your organization.

In this paper, we will show how ADX guides you through the steps of designing a statistical experiment, analyzing the data, and then creating Web-based results that you can share with your co-workers. We will give an overview of how to accelerate process knowledge discovery with ADX through automated design construction algorithms and model-fitting techniques; interactive graphics for exploration and optimization; and HTML report generation. We will illustrate some of these tools by analyzing data from a fractional factorial with multiple responses.
