Split-Plot and Split-Block Designs

Split-plot and Split-block designs belong to a class of designs in which the inter-block information is utilized fully. These designs arose from agricultural experiments where there is a necessity to consider plots of different sizes, as plots of comparab

Preface

While writing any book on any topic, the first question that has to be confronted is: Why one more book on this topic? Our justification: we have taught the material in the book for several years to students of Master of Science degree program in Statistics at the University of Mysore. A student with only a basic knowledge of Linear Algebra, Probability Theory and Statistics, and wanting to understand the basic concepts of Linear Models, Linear Estimation, Testing of Linear Hypotheses, basics of Design and Analysis of Experiments and the standard Models, will find this book useful. The book is targeted at beginners. Proofs are given in detail to help the uninitiated. We expect the reader to get motivated by the basics in the book and refer advanced literature on the topics to learn mor
