Some Combinatorial Arrangements And Incomplete Block Designs Through Them., Anis Chandra Mukherjee Dr. Feb 1975

Some Combinatorial Arrangements And Incomplete Block Designs Through Them., Anis Chandra Mukherjee Dr.

Doctoral Theses

The use and importance, in Statistical Experimental, of Incomplete Block Designs, particularly, Balanced Incomplete Block (BIB) Designs, Doubly Balanced Incomplete Block (DBIB) Designs and Partially Balanced Inçomplete Block (PBIB) Designs are well known. Several combinational arrangements, including the incidence matrices of these Incomplete Block Designs and association matrices associated with PBIB Designs are known to be of use in Design of Experiments. In this thesis, we consider the construction problems pertaining to some of these combinational arrangements and take up the problem of construction of BIB, DBIB and FBIB Designs through them. The combinational arrangements studied in the thesis have, …


On Some Problems Of Sequenting And Grouping., T. S. Arthanari Dr. Feb 1975

On Some Problems Of Sequenting And Grouping., T. S. Arthanari Dr.

Doctoral Theses

The problems of sequencing arise in almost all walks of life. Theory of scheduling deals with such problems. Usually, these probl ems are stated in the literature in terms of jobs, machines, operations, penalties, due dates et cetera, that is, in the language of machine shops. The real life problems of In machine - shop job sequencing are of a complex nature. general, we consider processing n items on a certain group of machines, so as to optimize certain objective, subject to various cons traints on precedence, machine availability, due date and so on. The job sequencing problems are includ …
