performance evaluation has been developed in the form of management schools along by managerial thought development. banks and financial institutes are one of the most important economic sections to each country which by receipts and payments directing and organizing facilitate business and commercial transactions and develop markets and economic growth and as the main pillars in directing and ...

The problem of the sample variance computation for epistemic inter-val-valued data is, in general, NP-hard. Therefore, known efficient algorithms for computing variance require strong restrictions on admissible intervals like the no-subset property or heavy limitations on the number of possible intersections between intervals. A new asymptotic algorithm for computing the upper bound of the samp...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a mathematical programming technique for evaluatingthe relative efficiency of a set of Decision Making Units (DMUs) and can also be utilized forsetting target. Target setting is one of the important subjects since according to its resultsefficiency can be increased. An important issue to be currently discussed, is to set targetwhile considering share data. The...

background: assessment of hospitals’ performance in achieving its goals is a basic necessity. measuring the efficiency of hospitals in order to boost resource productivity in healthcare organizations is extremely important. the aim of this study was to measure technical efficiency and determining status of resource allocation in some university hospitals, in tehran, iran.   methods : this study...

one of the important issues in data envelopment analysis (dea) is sensitivity analysis. heretofore the existent studies have considered the data modification of inputs and outputs in one or multiple dmus. in this paper the number of dmus is increased and a stability region is obtained in  by applying defining hyperplanes in which if the added dmu (only one dmu) is in this region then all of the...

data envelope analysis (dea) is an approach to estimate the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). several studies were conducted in order to prioritize efficient units and some useful models such as cross-efficiency matrix (cem) were presented.  besides, a number of dea models with interval data have been developed and ranking dmus with such data was solved. however, presenting a...

this paper investigates a procedure for identifying all efficient hyperplanes of production possibility set (pps). this procedure is based on a method which recommended by pekka j. korhonen[8]. he offered using of lexicographic parametric programming method for recognizing all efficient units in data envelopment analysis (dea). in this paper we can find efficient hyperplanes, via using the para...
