Author Description

"This book is a follow-up of Theory of Optimal Designs by K. R. Shah and Bikas K. Sinha, published in this series. Unlike the previous book, this one covers a wide range of topics in both discrete and continuous optimal designs. The topics discussed include designs for regression models, covariates models, models with trend effects, and models with competition effects. An extensive study on a new optimality criterion is also presented. The prerequisites are a basic course in the design and analysis of experiments and some familiarity with the concepts of optimality criteria."--BOOK JACKET.
