A Slacks-Based Measure of Efficiency of Electric Arc Furnace Activity with Undesirable Outputs
Efficiency reflects a scenario of higher quality product with fewer resource inputs and less pollution discharge. In terms of a manufacturing firm, it means a win-win strategy in both economic and environmental categories. The paper extends the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) activity management by taking pollution discharge as undesirable outputs. After reviewing relative undesirable outputs DEA li...
متن کاملA new slacks-based measure of Malmquist–Luenberger index in the presence of undesirable outputs
In the majority of production processes, noticeable amounts of bad byproducts or bad outputs are produced. The negative effects of the bad outputs on efficiency cannot be handled by the standard Malmquist index to measure productivity change over time. Toward this end, the Malmquist–Luenberger index (MLI) has been introduced, when undesirable outputs are present. In this paper, we introduce a D...
متن کاملAdditive slacks- based measure with undesirable output and feedback for a two-stage structure
This paper develops slacks-based measure (SBM) and additive SBM (ASBM) to evaluate efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) in a two-stage structure with undesirable outputs and feedback variables from the internal perspective. The SBM model is linearized for a specific weight and the ASBM model is reformulated as a second order cone program. The target values for all inputs, outputs (both d...
متن کاملApplying an Efficiency Measure of Desirable and Undesirable Outputs in DEA to U.S. Electric Utilities
The measure proposed in this paper is a new nonparametric data envelopment analysis (DEA) scheme, the hybrid measure, for determining efficiency in the presence of radial and nonradial inputs or outputs. Further extension of the scheme occurred to address nonseparable desirable and undesirable outputs. Applying the model to measure the overall efficiency of U.S. electric utilities in the presen...
متن کاملA slacks-based measure of efficiency in data envelopment analysis
In this paper, we will propose a Slacks-Based measure (SBM) of efficiency in DEA. This scalar measure deals directly with the input surplus and the output shortage of the decision making unit (DMU) concerned. It is unit invariant and monotone decreasing with respect to input surplus and output shortage. Furthermore, this measure is decided only by consulting with the reference set of the DMU an...
