This new methodology allows survey statisticians to develop statistical software for analyzing data in a more precisely and friendly way than with existing techniques.

Explains how to calibrate design weights in survey sampling Discusses how Jackknifing is needed in design weights in survey sampling Describes how design weights are imputed in survey sampling
