it's a pretty well known term, in (at least some schools of)
classical analysis of variance, e.g.
in the famous "Box, Hunter^2" (1987) book which had a 2nd
edition last year (Wiley), see also Doug Bates's nice account on
a talk about it,
http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/29768.html
and the R package "BHH2" which is devoted to the book (2nd Ed).
BHH2 has a function ffDesMatrix() for fractional factorial
designs, *and* in it's see also section a link to the
conf.design() function in the package of the same name which
allows to construct ff designs (via different specifications).
see e.g, http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/library/BHH2/html/ffDesMatrix.html

now, since you have this nice signature, maybe you should
get the above book? ;-) :-)
