title: 'cwad: Connectivity-Weighted Allocation and Comparison of Field-Plot Designs'
version: 0.2.0
abstract: 'A reproducible mixed-model toolkit for plant-breeding trial design. It
  evaluates any replication allocation under a known genetic relationship (kinship)
  matrix using one common linear-mixed-model engine on genotype means. Crucially,
  allocation and analysis model are crossed rather than confounded: every allocation
  can be scored both with and without kinship, so the precision gain attributable
  to a design can be separated from the gain attributable to the kinship-based analysis
  adopted alongside it. It computes A-optimal, connectivity-aware allocations via
  rank-1 Sherman-Morrison updates, and provides Monte-Carlo stress tests for outlier
  shrinkage and for an incorrectly specified kinship matrix, each with a matched control
  arm.'
