Subset selection for the best of two populations : tables of the expected subset size

Assume two independent populations are given. The associated independent random variables have Normal distributions with unknown expectations \theta_1 and \theta_2, respectively, and known common variance \sigma^2. The selection goal of Gupta's subset selection for two populations is to select a non-empty subset which contains the best, in the sense of largest expectation, population with confidence level P* (½ <P* <1). In Van der Laan and Van Eeden (1992) a generalized selection goal has been introduced and investigated. In this report extended tables with values of the expected subset size are given
