In multivariate stratified sampling the problem of allocating the sample to various strata can be formulated as a programming problem with several linear objective functions and single convex constraint. The problem has been solved by finding the Chebyshev point for various conflicting objective functions. A comparison with the fuzzy programming solution has also been made. Full text: PDF
