โฆ Synopsis
In this paper wc consider experimental situations in which r treatments arc to bc applied to experimental units arranged in b blocks of size k ::: 3 and where there may be unknown or uncontrollable linear trends (possibly different) within blocks. Methods are given here tbr determining and constructing E-optimal designs for such situations. ~

In this paper we consider the problem of constructing optimal designs for experimenta! situations where c controls are to be compared to t test treatments and the treatments are to bc applied to experimental units occurring in a linear array and where there may be an unknowlJ linear trend. Methods a
In this paper an inequality for the smallest positive eigenvalues of the \_C-matrix of a block design are derived. This inequality is a generalization of a result by CONSTANTINE (1982) to the caw of unequal block sizes. On the basis of the above result a certain E-optimality criterium of block desig
