System designs, optimizing resource allocation to organization units, is still being considered as a complicated problem especially when there are multiple inputs and outputs related to a unit. The algorithm presented here will divide the frontiers obtained with DEA. In this way, we investigate a new approach for resource allocation.

This paper proposes a methodology to examine economies of scope using the recent order-α nonparametric method. It allows us to investigate economies of scope by comparing the efficient order-α frontiers of firms that produce two or more goods with the efficient order-α frontiers of firms that produce only one good. To accomplish this, and because the order-α frontiers are irregular, we suggest ...

We present here a perceptual measure experiment of the linguistic segmentation hints carried by prosody. The selected paradigm is a dissociation test between couples of stimuli. The sentences are made of several segmentation variations in group and clause levels, and couples are made on all possible combinations of two sentences from the corpus. 20 listeners are able to associate at the same ti...

This paper analyzes the main theoretical approaches on agricultural frontier development, mainly in the context of the Brazilian Amazon. Different labels have been coined to depict frontier attributes (e.g., productive and speculative frontiers, contested frontiers, populist and capitalist frontiers), and each is being framed within a different perspective of understanding. Three main explanato...
