A statistician in Seattle, David H. Doehlert (personal communication, Oct. 5, 1990)  asked one of us if we could construct designs
for a full quadratic response surface depending on k factors, for k between 3 and 14, in which the number of runs n is minimal
or close to minimal.
The present paper (dealing with points in a sphere) and its sequel (dealing with points in a cube) describe the designs we found
and the method used. The chief merit of our designs when compared with classical ones such as fractional factorial designs,
central composite designs (Box and Wilson, 1951), or uniform shell designs (Doehlert, 1970), lies in the fact that the number
of runs is minimized, an important consideration when runs are expensive.  . . from a paper by R. H. Hardin and N. J. A. Sloane
