| dc.description.abstract | The problem of identifying one or more unknown
elements belonging to a finite set So' containing n
distinguishable elements is well known in literature.
Designs used in this kind of investigation are known
as search designs. Earlier work in this area was done
by Renyi (1965,1969,1970), Katona (1966), Dickson
(1969), Chakravarti and Manglik (1972), Chakravarti
(1976), Tosic (1980), Bush and Federer (1984) and Sebo
(1988).
In this thesis we consider the problem of developing
search designs for identifying one, two or three
unknown elements in the finite set Sn. The thesis is an
extension and generalization of the work done by Renyi
(1965), Chakravarti and Manglik (1972), Chakravarti
(1976) and Bush and Federer (1984). | en |
