Performance Analysis and Calculation of Marginal Rates in the Presence of Undesirable Input-output Factors and Non-Discretionary Indexes [PDF]
مدیریت صنعتی, 2022 Objective: In many production processes, the efficiency of decision-making units should be investigated in the presence of undesirable inputs and outputs and non-discretionary factors. It is also important for managers to examine the impact of changes on

The good, the bad and the technology:endogeneity in environmental production models [PDF]
, 2016 In this paper we consider an environmental production process in which firms intend to produce outputs (which we label as desirable/good) but the production process is such that it automatically produces some other unintentional but inevitable ...

Incorporating Undesirable Outputs into Malmquist TFP Index: Environmental Performance Growth of Chinese Coal-Fired Power Plants [PDF]
, 2007 In this article we examine the effects of undesirable outputs on the Malmquist TFP indices. Our empirical work uses an unbalanced panel which covers 796 utility and non-utility coal-fired power plants in China during 1996-2002.

Mathematical and Computational Applications, 2020 It is considerably important to calculate the cost efficiency in data envelopment analysis for the efficiency evaluation of decision-making units. The present paper develops the classical cost efficiency model in which all the input prices are constant ...

Development of Data Envelopment Analysis for the Performance Evaluation of Green Supply Chain with Undesirable Outputs [PDF]
International Journal of Supply and Operations Management, 2016 A fundamental problem is the use of DEA in multistep or multilevel processes such as supply chain, lack of attention to processes’ internal communications in a way that the recent studies on DEA in the context of serial processes have focused on closed ...

On the inconsistency of the Malmquist-Luenberger index [PDF]
, 2013 Apart from the well-known weaknesses of the standard Malmquist productivity index related to infeasibility and not accounting for slacks, already addressed in the literature, we identify a new and significant drawback of the Malmquist-Luenberger index
