Abstract

A general method for determining stopping rules to obtain a fixed-width confidence interval of prescribed coverage probability for an unknown parameter of a distribution is obtained. Asymptotic theory in the sense of Chow and Robbins [4] is discussed. The sequential procedure obtained is asymptotically consistent and efficient in the sense of Chow and Robbins [4].
