Finding the efficiency score and RTS characteristic of DMUs by means of identifying the efficient frontier in DEA |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is basically a linear programming based technique used for measuring the relative performance of organizational units, referred to as decision-making units (DMUs), where the presence of multiple inputs and outputs makes comparisons difficult. The ability of identifying frontier DMUs prior to the DEA calculation is of extreme importance to an effective and efficient DEA computation. In this paper, a method for identifying the efficient frontier is introduced. Then, the efficiency score and returns to scale (RTS) characteristic of DMUs will be produced by means of the equation of efficient frontier. |
