the motivation of this paper is to propose such equitable method for ranking all decision making units (dmus) in dynamic data envelopment analysis (ddea) framework. as far as we are aware there is not more studies in dynamic dea literature. what's more, in such cases the best operating unit is important to be sampled for the others in under evaluated time periods. however, in this special conce...

Measuring the efficiency of real businesses is not a simple task, because a real business may involve several processes and sub-processes, forming a very complicated dynamic network of interactions. In this paper, a customized dynamic network data envelopment analysis (NDEA) model is proposed to measure the efficiency of the sub-processes in a real business. The proposed dynamic NDEA model is f...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a managerial powerful tool for assess the performance of decision making units (dmus). nowadays, multi-objective dea models are an attractive technique for evaluation quantity and quality aspects of performance analysis. but these models are in static. in this paper, we want to present a proposed fuzzy dynamic multi-objective dea model in which data are changi...

energy, due to its increasing usage in various broad areas has been maintained as a vital factor in economic growth and development of societies. meanwhile, natural gas is considered as one of the most important energy sources. therefore, the efficiency and the productivity of the gas companies are crucial to be assessed. numerous examples from industrial multistage processes including internal...

in many european states such as spain and italy there has been a significant growth of organic utilizable surface as a consequence of both a change in the model of agricultural production and also in order to satisfy arising demand of organic food. the purpose of this research was to investigate the level of technical, allocative and economic efficiency in italian olive farms with two different...

having a comprehensive evaluation model with reliable data is useful to improve performance of supply chain. in this paper, according to the nature of supply chain, a model is presented that able to evaluate the performance of the supply chain by a network data envelopment analysis model and by using the financial, intellectual capital (knowledge base), collaboration and responsiveness factors ...
