Are the Energy Efficiency Technologies efficient?
Economic Modelling, 2010Abstract This paper investigates a rather neglected issue regarding the impact of Energy Efficiency Technologies (EETs) on firms' productive performance. Possible influences may arise in the context of internal cost of adjustment, learning by doing effects and the capital vintage. A unique dataset was used which has resulted from a survey carried out

DEA efficiency analysis: Efficient and anti-efficient frontier
Applied Mathematics and Computation, 2007Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a methodology for identifying the efficient frontier of production possibility set. Using this efficient frontier, an efficiency score is derived to each decision making units. This study, proposes an alternative efficiency measure by using efficient and anti-efficient frontiers.

Efficiency of trucks in logistics: technical efficiency and scale efficiency
Asian Journal on Quality, 2010PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to propose a scheme to estimate the technical efficiency of trucks engaged in logistics and to analyze the properties of efficiency. The objectives are to determine individual‐truck level technical efficiency using both radial and non‐radial measures for freight trucks, to calculate the degree of input overuse.Design/

Nursing Ethics, 1997
Efficiency has become of central importance in health care and is seen as wholly laudable. It appears to offer a precise and objective means of evaluating and comparing institutions, practices and individuals, and is a principle that underlies techniques of cost-benefit analysis and other methods of option appraisal.

Efficiency, Efficient Institutions, and Globalization
2012Does globalization entail a demand for uniformity, or diversity, of the (political) economic institutions of nation-states? This is the question that has loomed large in the policy debate on the different approaches to the transformation of the Soviet-type economic system.
