Abstract

Gustav Elfving contributed to the genesis of optimal experimental design theory with several papers mainly in the 1950s. These papers are presented and briefly analyzed. The connections between Elfving’s results and the results of his successors are elucidated to stress the relevance of Elfving’s impact on the development of optimal design theory.
