By using the Double Frontiers Criteria, Hurwicz succeeded to achieve The Most Productive Scale Size of decision making units. This Double frontiers criteria was achieved by using two models of “CCR” in optimistic viewpoint in input form and the “CCR” model in pessimistic viewpoint in input form. In this paper, we intend to find a criteria for Double frontiers of super efficiency by using two mo...

window analysis is a known technique to evaluate performance during the time periods based on data envelopment analysis. in application of window analysis is assumed that efficient frontier have not changed during the periods in the study. unlike the window analysis, malmquist index tries to identify difference between efficient frontiers and separated them. but the means of different frontier ...

We present a class of partitioning scheme that we have called frontier sets. Frontier sets build on the notion of a potentially visible set (PVS) (Airey, Rohlf & Brooks, 1990) (Teller & Sequin, 1991). In a PVS, a world is sub-divided into cells and for each cell all the other cells that can be seen are computed. In contrast, a frontier set considers pairs of cells, A and B. For each pair, it li...

population growth and the needs for protein and dairy products has urged policy makers to pay attention to efficiency policies in the livestock sector. the objective of this study is to survey the factors affecting the income of milk production, to calculate cattlemen’s technical efficiency and to determine the factors affecting the technical efficiency in the northern khorasan province. the re...
