چکیده

In this paper, we re-examine Data Envelopment Analysis models from perspectives of preference order, production set and performance measure. we investigate the relationship between Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Multiple Criteria Decision Making Theory. There are three key building blocks in a DEA model: preference order, production possibility set and performance measure. It is shown in this work that many known DEA models and new ones, can be derived via this approach.

Efficiency evaluation of wheat farming: a network data envelopment analysis approach

Traditional data envelopment analysis (DEA) models deal with measurement of relative efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) in which multiple-inputs consumed to produce multiple-outputs. One of the drawbacks of these models is neglecting internal processes of each system, which may have intermediate products and/or independent inputs and/or outputs. In this paper some methods which are usab...

Performance analysis in production processes in the presence of fixed-sum outputs

Performance measurement in the presence of fixed-sum outputs in data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an interesting and most frequently studied subject in the field of operations research. Different definitions of relative efficiency in the presence of fixed-sum outputs have been proposed in the literature of data envelopment analysis and in all of the existing definitions a common equilibrium ef...
