It is well known that Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a relative efficiency measurement tool, which uses optimization techniques to automatically calculate the weights assigned to the crisp deterministic multiple inputs and outputs of a set of the Decision Making Units (DMUs) being assessed. However, crisp deterministic data requirement delimits an application to the real world problems wher...

Supplier evaluation and selection are critical decision making processes that require consideration of a variety of attributes. Several studies have been performed for effective evaluation and selection of suppliers by utilizing several techniques such as linear weighting methods, mathematical programming models, statistical methods and AI based techniques. One of the successful evaluation meth...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a technique used to compare efficiency in various sectors such as hospitals, chain stores, and dealerships. it represents a set of linear programming techniques and uses deter-ministic data (inputs and outputs), in stable conditions. the dea technique cannot be used when there is data with indeterministic nature, or when there is an environment with dynamic co...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a nonparametric approach to estimate relative efficiency of Decision Making Units (DMUs). DEA is one of the best quantitative approaches and balanced scorecard (BSC) is one of the best qualitative methods to measure efficiency of an organization. Since simultaneous evaluation of network performance of the quad areas of BSC model is considered as a necessity an...

This paper studies the inverse data envelopment analysis using the nonradial enhanced Russell model. Necessary and sufficient conditions for inputs/outputs determination are introduced based on Pareto solutions of multiple-objective linear programming. In addition, an approach is investigated to identify extra input/lack output in each of input/output components (maximum/minimum reduction/incre...

In this paper we present a method for measuring the efficiency for any economical branch. We construct the econometric approach of production frontiers, using the DEA technique (Data envelopment analysis), based on the mathematical programming approach. We effectuate an analysis of some certain data concerning the efficiency or the inefficiency of the branches, using the Efficiency Measurement ...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method to measure relative efficiency of a set of decision-making units (dmus) which uses multiple inputs and produces multiple outputs. in the conventional dea, crisp inputs and outputs are fundamentally necessary. but the observed values of inputs and outputs in real-world problems are sometimes imprecise. thus, performance measurement often needs to be do...
