نویسندگان
چکیده
Increase in competition level and unclear demand in the market have made organizations to utilize scientific models and techniques for optimizing their management process. Among the main processes effective on organizations performance is to select appropriate providers. The following research tries to present an optimized solution for providers, assessment and selection. The study uses data envelopment analysis (DEA) model, ultimate cross efficiency and Shannon entropy. DEA is used to determine the efficient decision-making units. Ultimate cross efficiency and Shannon entropy are used for ranking the units.

Entropy Cross-Efficiency Model for Decision Making Units with Interval Data
The cross-efficiency method, as a Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) extension, calculates the cross efficiency of each decision making unit (DMU) using the weights of all decision making units (DMUs). The major advantage of the cross-efficiency method is that it can provide a complete ranking for all DMUs. In addition, the cross-efficiency method could eliminate unrealistic weight results. Howeve...

A data envelopment analysis (DEA) method can be regarded as a useful management tool to evaluate decision making units (DMUs) using multiple inputs and outputs. In some cases, we face with imprecise inputs and outputs, such as fuzzy or interval data, so the efficiency of DMUs will not be exact. Most researchers have been interested in getting efficiency and ranking DMUs recently. Models of th...

متن کاملIntroducing a secondary goal for evaluating DMUs by cross efficiency in data envelopment analysis
One way to rank DMUs in DEA is the cross efficiency method. In this method, the efficiencyof each DMU is calculated by other DMUs optimum weights, which makes the ranking moreacceptable for managers. Existing alternative optimum weights in cross efficiency methodlead to several ranks for DMUs. Several secondary goals have introduced to avoid thisproblem, till now. In this paper, a new model is ...
