This paper models such a class of problems by assigning a fixed cost to each observation taken. The total number of observations is determined as a function of the observation cost. Extension to the case where the observation cost is an explicit function of the number of observations taken is straightforward. A different way to model the observation constraints should be investigated. More work is needed however to obtain improved decision rules for the problems of unconstrained and constrained optimization under parameter uncertainty when i the observations are from general continuous exponential families of distributions ii the observations are from discrete exponential families of distributions iii some of the observations are from continuous exponential families of distributions and some from discrete exponential families of distributions iv the observations are from multiparameter or multidimensional distributions v the observations are from truncated distributions vi the observations are censored vii the censored observations are from truncated distributions. 9.
