Abstract: A comprehensive method is proposed to obtain optimal allocation rules for fixed effects experiments. The approach is divided into 4 sections, which allows the analysis of individual samples, pairs and structured families of independent samples. These insights are then used to obtain the optimal allocation rules. Finally, two numerical applications are provided which demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach and provide additional insight into how to effectively use the proposed methodology.
