For better guiding a system, senior managers should have accurate information. Using Data Envelopment analysis (DEA) help managers in this objective. Thus, many investigations have been made in order to find the most productive scale size (MPSS) for the evaluating decision making units (DMUs). In this paper we consider this case where there exist subsets of input and output variables to be inte...

the aim of this study was to assess the relative efficiency of the iranian forest management plans using the non-parametric method – data envelopment analysis (dea) as a well-known and robust technique for measuring the relative efficiency of organizations. the relative efficiency of forest management plans was calculated using the most frequency dea models such as global technical efficiency (...

in this study, the optimization of energy consumption and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of irrigated lentil production in esfahan province were conducted using data envelopment analysis (dea) method. the used data were collected randomly from 140 lentil producers using a face to face questionnaire method in the cropping season of 2014-2015. based on two dea models of constant returns to...

Using a sample of 21 OECD-countries we measure productivity in top-edge economic research by using data envelopment analysis (DEA). DEA is a tool for evaluating relative efficiency and is widely used when there are multiple inputs and outputs and one lacks a specific functional form of a production function. The publications in 10 economics journals with the highest average impact factor over t...

in this research, efficiency of iranian forest and rangeland decision making unit was assessed using non-parametric method. inputs and outputs determined by field research and with applying a delphi method the final input and output variables selected. forty five wood-producing units (forestry plans) in three northern iranian province were studied using data envelopment analysis. the efficiency...
