Multicomponent production technologies with restricted allocations of shared inputs and outputs

We consider production technologies in which several parallel component processes are characterized by both component-specific and shared inputs outputs. The recently developed multicomponent variable constant returns-to-scale (MVRS MCRS) models of such based on the assumption that we have no information about actual allocation outputs to processes, is a common scenario many applications. MVRS model treats each process as separate convex technology. MCRS additionally assumes scalable Both account for most conservative, or worst-case, individual does not require any knowledge measures. In current paper, develop new class models, integrating mechanism specification lower upper bounds proportions can be allocated different processes. show may supported data generally lead larger technology improved differentiation efficiency. As an illustration, discuss application approach context higher education.
