Optimal and efficient repeated measurements designs for comparing test treatments with a control

Rearranging the sequence of test treatments and control treatment within each block of an A-optimal balanced treatment block design such that certain conditions are satisfied, the resulting design is an A-optimal repeated measurements designs when blocks are regarded as units or periods. The efficiencies of designs which are obtained from universally optimal repeated mea-surements designs with test treatments only by changing some treatment labels into control treatment are given.
