## Abstract

Let $\pi _{1},\ldots,\pi _{k}$ be k(≥ 2) independent normal populations with unknown means $\mu _{1},\ldots,\mu _{k}$ respectively and unknown common variance $\sigma ^{2}$. Based on $n_{i}$ observations from $\pi _{i}(1\leq i\leq k)$ a class of subset selection procedures for selection of a non-empty subset including the population with the largest mean is proposed and studied. Comparisons are given between the proposed procedures and those of Gupta and D.-Y, Huang (1976) and Gupta and W. -T. Huang (1974) in terms of probability of correct selection, expected subset size, and ease of implementation in terms of both available tabled constants and numbers of computations.
