the rings considered in this article are commutative with identity $1neq 0$. by a proper ideal of a ring $r$,  we mean an ideal $i$ of $r$ such that $ineq r$.  we say that a proper ideal $i$ of a ring $r$ is a  maximal non-prime ideal if $i$ is not a prime ideal of $r$ but any proper ideal $a$ of $r$ with $ isubseteq a$ and $ineq a$ is a prime ideal. that is, among all the proper ideals of $r$,...

for efficiency evaluation of some of the decision making units that have uncertain information, rough data envelopment analysis technique is used, which is derived from rough set theorem and data envelopment analysis (dea). in some situations rough data alter nonradially. to this end, this paper proposes additive rough–dea model and illustrates the proposed model by a numerical example.
