In this paper we consider the discrimination
between more than two hypotheses for the
parameter of an exponential distribution based
on a Sobel-Wald-test and the computation of the
characteristics of such procedures. By means of
a hierarchy-stage-algorithm an exact method for
the computation of the average sample number is
presented.
