Technologies ranking in the presence of both cardinal and ordinal data
نویسنده
چکیده
Ranking of technologies is an important phase for technology transfer. To rank the best technologies in the presence of both cardinal and ordinal data, this paper proposes an innovative approach, which is based on imprecise data envelopment analysis (IDEA). The objective of this paper is to propose a comprehensive reference that discusses the use of IDEA in technology ranking. A numerical example demonstrates the application of the proposed method. 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Ranking DMUs by ideal points in the presence of fuzzy and ordinal data
Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a very eective method to evaluate the relative eciency of decision-making units (DMUs). DEA models divided all DMUs in two categories: ecient and inecientDMUs, and don't able to discriminant between ecient DMUs. On the other hand, the observedvalues of the input and output data in real-life problems are sometimes imprecise or vague, suchas interval data, ordinal da...
متن کاملApplying Interval GTMA Method for Technology Selection in the Presence of both Cardinal and Ordinal Data
Selection of technologies is one of the most challenging decision making areas the management of a company encounters. It is difficult to clarify the right technology alternatives because the number of technologies is increasing and the technologies are becoming more and more complex. The objective of this paper is to present a new method for selecting technology by using of Interval GTMA metho...
متن کاملEfficiency Evaluation and Ranking DMUs in the Presence of Interval Data with Stochastic Bounds
On account of the existence of uncertainty, DEA occasionally faces the situation of imprecise data, especially when a set of DMUs include missing data, ordinal data, interval data, stochastic data, or fuzzy data. Therefore, how to evaluate the efficiency of a set of DMUs in interval environments is a problem worth studying. In this paper, we discussed the new method for evaluation and ranking i...
متن کاملSuppliers selection in the presence of both cardinal and ordinal data
Traditionally, supplier selection models are based on cardinal data with less emphasis on ordinal data. However, with the widespread use of manufacturing philosophies such as Just-In-Time (JIT), emphasis has shifted to the simultaneous consideration of cardinal and ordinal data in supplier selection process. To select the best suppliers in the presence of both cardinal and ordinal data, this pa...
متن کاملDiscount Environments in the Presence of Both Cardinal and ordinal Data
With the widespread use of manufacturing philosophies such as Just-In-Time (JIT), emphasis has shifted to the simultaneous consideration of cardinal and ordinal data in supplier selection process. Traditionally, many optimization models of supplier selection assume that the average prices of related expenditures are constant. This is far beyond the real situation. In fact, suppliers usually off...
