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...

Short-run and long-run technical and allocative efficiencies were computed for 395 New York dairy farms using data envelopment or nonparametric procedures on 1990 Dairy Farm Business Summary data. The farms were, on average, more allocatively efficient in the short run than in the long run, but were more technically efficient in the long run than in the short run. Stanchion barns were as effici...

New types of characterization of Pareto efficiency based on data envelopment analysis are extended here in several new directions involving allocative efficiency and stochastic filtering methods.

the objective of this paper is to determine the efficiency of manufacturing companies in kenya over the period of 2009 to 2011 as well as suggesting appropriate policies to be employed by the manufacturing companies in kenya based on the findings of the study. three critical inputs variables (raw materials, staff expenses and plant and machinery) and two output variables (net sale and earnings ...

in this paper, the cost and income efficiency models have been considered with regard to the multiple objective programming structures. for finding the efficient points in purposed molp problem, some various methods like lexicography & the weighted sum can be used. so by introducing the molp problem the cost & income efficiencies will be achieved. in the present study, the molp problem ...

this paper concerns the design and analysis, of a ball type continuously variable transmission, (b-cvt). this b-cvt has a simple kinematic structure, and same as a toroidal cvt, transmits power by friction on the contact points between input and output discs, that are connected to each other by balls. after, a brief introduction of our b-cvt structure, the performance and traction efficiency of...

man raises level of his needs by falsifying the nature and construction of the built spaces. by examining various aspects and complex dimensions of the human, variable and different needs can be clearly seen. therefore, an architectural construction, especially housing, should be able to set the access conditions to meet the highest level of the needs and achieve to the highest level of respons...
