assessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
An Assessment of the Security of China’s Natural Gas Supply System Using Two Network Models
In the context of climate change, natural gas is becoming increasingly important for low-carbon development in China. The gap between the demand and supply of natural gas, domestically, and China’s high dependence on foreign sources, highlights the importance of ensuring a secure system for supplying natural gas in the country. This study applied ecological network analysis, a powerful systems-...
متن کاملAn empirical Assessment using structural equation Models
In a recent study, the authors reveal with structural equation models that the positive effect of information technology on generalized trust is mediated by political institutions. Although insightful, a key question remains: Is it the effectiveness and efficiency, the universality, and/or the power-sharing capacity of the state that mediates this effect? Drawing on new institutional economics,...
متن کاملNetwork Models In Epidemiology: An Overview
Mathematical modeling has provided many significant insights concerning the epidemiology of infectious diseases. The most notable of these include threshold conditions (involving the so-called ‘basic reproductive number’) that describe when invasion and persistence of an infection is possible. The development of much of this theory has revolved around the use of extremely simple models, such as...
متن کاملAn analysis of constructive network formation models
We study a family of network formation models to determine how payment rules affect the final network topologies that emerge. In our model a set of nodes starts out without any edges and the nodes must pay for the creation of edges using one of several different payment mechanisms. Example payment mechanisms include one node paying for the whole edge, and the cost being shared equally between t...
