Iran Railway Efficiency Analysis, Using DEA: An International Comparison
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Efficiency measurement is critical for industries where firms do not face strong competition, as we cannot rely on the market to discipline the firms' efficiency. Railway is a typical example. At the same time the fact that railway produces multiple outputs using the common set of inputs calls for a delicate and sophisticated treatment in measuring the efficiencies. In this article, the DEA method is used to determine RAI (RahAhan Iran) efficiency comparison with other countries. The scale efficiency rate of RAI was calculated and showed the percentage of 0.564. Finally, by analyzing this performance, a suitability in inputs and outputs for reaching the efficiency boundary was resulted.

The main aim of this paper is to evaluate the energy efficiency in 30 provinces of Iran by applying the different methods of DEA and Anderson and Peterson during the period of 2009-2013. Also, since classical analysis models do not differentiate efficient cases, the AP method (Anderson-Peterson) was used to rank efficient units for evaluating efficiency correctly. So that combination of input v...
