    This paper is concerned with two generalizations of the Kronecker product and two related generalizations of the vecb operator. The authors define a less restricted generalized Kronecker product \(A\otimes B\) of two matrices A and B. Whereas the product studied before is based on the partitioning of both matrices A and B, they presuppose in this paper a partition of B only. Researchers can partition A according to their needs and wishes. In Section 1 the authors discuss the case of balanced partitioning. In Section 2 they elaborate the general case of unbalanced partitioning. Finally, in Section 3 they apply some of the techniques discussed.
