In a previous paper, we considered several models of the parlor game baccara chemin de fer, including Model B2 (a 2×2484 matrix game) and Model B3 (a 25×2484 matrix game), both of which depend on a positive-integer parameter d, the number of decks. The key to solving the game under Model B2...

This paper develops optimal designs when it is not feasible for every cluster to be represented in a sample as in stratified design, by assuming equal probability two-stage sampling where clusters are small areas. The paper develops allocation methods for two-stage sample surveys where...
