Abstract:

Two stages DEA models are used in many fields of management and industry. One of the concepts that has attracted the attention of researchers in the theory of production is the concept of ranking the units with a two-stage network. A unit ranking can provide useful information to decision makers (DMUs) about optimal decision making activities. This concept defines the superiority of a unit in terms of efficiency and effectiveness on other units. The calculation of the efficiency of the units in the two-stage DEA network was performed, and the efficiency of the two-stage unit could be a suitable criterion for ranking one unit. But the main problem is the time when some efficient units all rank as one. So far, there is no linear model for solving this problem.The purpose of this research is to provide a model for ranking of effecient units using the common weight method in a two-stage DEA network.

Finding Common Weights in Two-Stage Network DEA

In data envelopment analysis (DEA), mul-tiplier and envelopment CCR models eval-uate the decision-making units (DMUs) under optimal conditions. Therefore, the best prices are allocated to the inputs and outputs. Thus, if a given DMU was not efficient under optimal conditions, it would not be considered efficient by any other models. In the current study, using common weights in DEA, a number of...

Ranking Two-Stage Process Using a Common Set of Weights in DEA

Supply chain management is the combination of art and science that goes into improving the supply chain. In some cases of supply chain especially two-stage process, differing weights for the same factors, may not acceptable. The purpose of this paper is a performance evaluation of two-stage using DEA and based on a CSW model and this method for ranking two-stage and could be used to measure the...

Ranking DEA Efficient Units with the Most Compromising Common Weights

One may employ Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to discriminate decision-making units (DMUs) into efficient and inefficient ones base upon the multiple inputs and output performance indices. In this paper we consider that there is a centralized decision maker (DM) who ‘owns’ or ‘supervises’ all the DMUs. In such intraorganizational scenario the DM has an interest in discriminating the efficient ...

A two-stage model for ranking DMUs using DEA/‎AHP‎

‎In this paper, we present a two-stage model for ranking of decision making units (DMUs) using interval analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to the efficient units, we evaluate the efficiency of each DMU by basic DEA models and calculate the weights of the criteria using proposed model. In the first stage, the proposed model evaluates decision making...

Ranking Efficient DMUs Using the Variation Coefficient of Weights in DEA

One of the difficulties of Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) is the problem of de_ciency discrimination among efficient Decision Making Units (DMUs) and hence, yielding large number of DMUs as efficient ones. The main purpose of this paper is to overcome this inability. One of the methods for ranking efficient DMUs is minimizing the Coefficient of Variation (CV) for inputs-outputs weights. In this...
