Title: Impact of Raghavarao's Contributions to the Construction of Sampling Designs
Author(s): J. N. K. Rao*+
Companies: Carleton University
Keywords: Sampling designs ; Controlled sampling ; Resampling methods ; Variance estimation
Abstract:

Damaraju Raghavarao made outstanding contributions to the theory of experimental designs. HIs Wiley 1971 book Constructions and Combinatorial Problems in Design of Experiments is a classic. He applied his exceptional skills in combinatorial theory to a variety of practical problems including the construction of sampling designs. In this talk I will review some of those contributions to sampling designs. I will also present some recent work on the application of experimental designs to construct sampling designs,inspired by Raghavarao's pioneering work.


Authors who are presenting talks have a * after their name.
