5. GOAL SOFTENING
Suppose you sample independently from a large (infinite) population of design
choices. Each sample i represents a particular design resulting in a
particular system performance, Ji. Let us say the
Ji's are distributed N(m, sigma2).
Now we randomly pick k designs Ji, i = 1, 2,
..., k. What is the probability that among these k picks there
is at least one design that is larger than some given value
Jsatisfactory.
