Abstract
The choice of optimal designs for the estimation of variance components depends on the method of estimation, the model used, and the values of the variance components themselves. Traditional comparisons of such designs cannot therefore be made without some prior knowledge of the variance components. This problem was circumvented by the introduction of the so-called quantile dispersion graphs (QDGs) in Khuri (1997) and Lee and Khuri (1999). The present article provides an extension of the use of the QDGs to the comparison of designs for an unbalanced random two-way model without interaction. Two methods of estimation of the variance components are considered, namely, the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and maximum likelihood (ML).
