Target setting in the process of merging and restructuring of decision-making units using multiple objective linear programming

This paper presents a novel approach to achieving the goals of data envelopment analysis in the process of reconstruction and integration of decision-making units by using multiple objective linear programming. In this regard, first, we review inverse data envelopment analysis models for data reconstruction and integration. We present a model with multi-objective linear programming structure in inverse data envelopment analysis. The superiority of the model to prioritize inputs and outputs in the input and output data integration process. Finally, we used of bank data for showing the validity of proposed approach and we proposed results.
