  • Abstract
    This paper describes constructions for strength-2 mixed covering arrays developed from index-1 orthogonal arrays, ordered designs and covering arrays. The constructed arrays have optimal or near-optimal sizes. Conditions for achieving optimal size are described. An optimization among the different ingredient arrays to maximize the number of factors of each alphabet size is also presented.
