Measuring Carbon- Environmental Efficiency with Imprecise Data by Using Fuzzy Data Envelopment Analysis (Case Study: Iran and Oil-Rich Countries) [PDF]
پژوهشهای اقتصادی, 2019 Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a powerful technique for measuring efficiency. The traditional DEA approach is applicable when inputs and outputs are certain. Since, some input and output data, such as CO2 emission are often imprecise or vague in real

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract Literature reviews published in peer‐reviewed journals are a prime source of general reference, as their validity and reliability are usually undisputed. This paper aims to raise awareness on biases and replicability challenges widely spread across literature reviews, using the field of efficiency of education as an example.

Nitric Oxide Tunes Secreted Metabolite Bioactivity
Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces phenazine metabolites that can react with nitric oxide (·NO) to form nitrosylated compounds. The formation of these metabolites results in rapid loss in P. aeruginosa viability and diminishes phenazine antimicrobial activity against other organisms, including Staphylococcus aureus. ABSTRACT The radical nitric oxide (·NO)

Estimating Vessel Efficiency Using a Bootstrapped Data Envelopment Analysis Model
Technical efficiency, which measures how well a firm transforms inputs into outputs, gives fishery managers important information concerning the economic status of the fishing fleet and how regulations may be impacting vessel profitability.

An application of the data envelopment analysis methodology in the performance assessment of the Zaragoza University Departments [PDF]
The increasing interest in the measurement of the performance and efficiency in non-profit public organisations, has led to the development of performance indicators, each of which attempts to measure the output (input) of a group of nearly homogeneous ...

Non-homogeneity in Data Envelopment Analysis [PDF]
, 2008 Data Envelopment Analysis requires all the units that are being compared to be homogeneous. One of the homogeneity requirements is that they all share the same inputs and outputs.
