data envelopment analysis (dea) is a mathematical programming method in operations research that can be used to distinguish between efficient and inefficient decision making units (dmus). however, the conventional dea models do not have the ability to rank the efficient dmus. this article suggests bootstrapping method for ranking measures of technical efficiency as calculated via non-radial mod...

The impetus for this research was examining a flow shop problem in which tasks were expected to be successively carried out with no time interval (i.e., no wait time) between them. For this reason, they should be completed by specific dates or deadlines. In this regard, the efficiency of the models was evaluated based on makespan. To solve the NP-Hard problem, we developed two mathematical mode...

In this paper, the common centralized DEA models are extended to the bi-level centralized resource allocation (CRA) models based on revenue efficiency. Based on the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, the bi-level CRA model is reduced to a one-level mathematical program subject to complementarity constraints (MPCC). A recurrent neural network is developed for solving this one-level mathematica...
