in the process of production, some of the inputs are fixed and cannot easily be changed, such as work hours of workers and hours of administrative or work, these types of inputs are fixed and others are variables. in this paper, by considering some inputs or outputs which are limited, their amounts must be integrated; this concept for integer data is extended. we show the importance of subject ...

A data ecosystem (DE) offers a keystone-player or alliance-driven infrastructure that enables the interaction of different stakeholders and resolution interoperability issues among shared data. However, despite years research in governance management, trustability is still affected by absence transparent traceable data-driven pipelines. In this work, we focus on requirements challenges DEs face...

the present study is an attempt toward evaluating the performance of portfolios using mean-variance-skewness model with negative data. mean-variance non-linear framework and mean-variance-skewness non- linear framework had been proposed based on data envelopment analysis, which the variance of the assets had been used as an input to the dea and expected return and skewness were the output. conv...

recently, farzipoor saen [journal of the operational research society, 60(11), 1575–1582 (2009)] proposed a method based on data envelopment analysis to identify optimistic efficient suppliers in the presence of nondiscretionary factors-imprecise data. this short communication aims at showing a computational error in computing the value of preference intensity parameter in farzipoor saen’s [1] ...

one of the new topics in dea is the data with integer values. in dea classic models, it is assumed that input and output variables have real values. however, in many cases, some inputs or outputs can have integer values. measuring cost efficiency is another method to evaluate the performance and assess the capabilities of a single decision-making unit for manufacturing current products at a min...
