Abstract #300683

This is the preliminary program for the 2004 Joint Statistical Meetings in Toronto, Canada. Currently included in this program is the "technical" program, schedule of invited, topic contributed, regular contributed and poster sessions; Continuing Education courses (August 7-10, 2004); and Committee and Business Meetings. This on-line program will be updated frequently to reflect the most current revisions.

Abstract:	A multilevel experiment contains different sizes of experimental units. Examples include split-plot and strip-plot experiments, which are commonly used in the agricultural and engineering sciences. Optimal designs for experiments with independent errors can be constructed using exchange algorithms. A modification of these algorithms is used to account for the covariance matrix in split-plot and split-split-plot experiments and some results are discussed.
