This paper proposes to combine Workforce Scorecard and DEA method to evaluate ...

As we know, in evaluating of DMUs some of them might be efficient, so ranking of them have a high significant. One of the ranking methods is cross-efficiency. Cross efficiency evaluation in data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a commonly used skill for ranking decision making units (DMUs). Since, many studies ignore the intra-organizational communication and consider DMUs as a black box. For sign...

Cross-efficiency is a famous ranking method for data envelopment analysis (DEA) that deletes unrealistic weights pattern with no need to a priori information ‎related ‎to ‎weights ‎restrictions. ‎This‎ method analyzes each decision making unit (DMU) taking into account the best weights resulted from assessing other DMUs. In cross-efficiency evaluation, secondary goals such as aggressiveness, be...

introduction: efficiency evaluation of universities and faculties is one of the tools that help managers to identify the departments’ strengths and weakness. the main objective of the present research was to measure and compare the technical efficiency of shiraz school of medicine departments using data envelopment analysis (dea) technique. methods: this cross-sectional and retrospective study ...

The cross-efficiency evaluation is an effective method to evaluate the decision making units (DMUs) with the nonnegative inputs and outputs in data envelopment analysis (DEA) and can be performed with the different formulations. But, in some situations the DMUs encounter with the negative inputs and outputs. This paper generalizes the cross efficiency evaluation for the DMUs with the negative i...

This paper deals with the selection of the profiles of weights to be used in cross-efficiency evaluations. In an attempt to prevent unrealistic weighting schemes, one of the issues of main interest that we address here is that of the zero weights, since their use implies that some of the variables considered are excluded from the assessments to be made. In the calculation of cross-efficiency sc...

Recently, some authors proposed the use of symmetric weightsfor computing the elements of cross-efficiency matrix. In spite ofthe fact that the proposed method decreases the number of zeroweights, a large number of zero weights may still exist among inputand output symmetric weights. To decrease the number of input andoutput symmetric weights, this paper improves the proposed secondarygoal mode...
