I recalling writing a computer program to do something like this, though the professor called them "Latin Squares" (which is different). We were creating stimuli for a psychology experiment, in which there were 16 icons, which needed to be arranged into a 4x4 grid in 16 different ways. A simple shift was not allowed, since the subjects could detect that, so a way of randomizing the placement of icons was what I developed. I know my first attempt would get into infinite loops, but my second program worked great.
