The advent of data envelopment analysis (DEA) enabled the measurement of efficiency to be extended to the case of multiple outputs. Prior to DEA we had the parametric approach based on multiple regression. We highlight some difficulties associated with these two approaches and present a hybrid which overcomes them whilst maintaining the respective advantages of each. This hybrid models the effi...

We propose an evaluation approach for a novel travel demand management strategy known as the downtown space reservation system (DSRS). This approach takes into account three perspectives, i.e., transportation service provider’s, the user’s, and the community’s and is based on network-Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) where the perspectives are inter-related through intermediate inputs/outputs. Tw...
