## Abstract This note considers the optimal and suboptimal sequential and fixed sample size estimation of the unknown binomial parameter, __p__, for a beta prior distribution for __p__ and under quadratic loss and constant observation cost. A numerical comparison of the methods is presented.

## Abstract Quantitative prediction of the erodibility of muds and mudβsand mixtures is, at present, seldom possible without resorting to direct measurements, preferably in situ. A variety of devices and protocols have been developed for erosion testing, but a considerable degree of uncertainty rem
Predictions of climate change are uncertain mainly because of uncertainties in the emissions of greenhouse gases and how sensitive the climate is to changes in the abundance of the atmospheric constituents. The equilibrium climate sensitivity is defined as the temperature increase because of a doubl
