The purpose of this paper is to analyze the productivity change for agricultural cooperatives in Japan measured by nonparametric outputoriented Malmquist indices of total factor productivity. The productivity change is decomposed into technical change and technical efficiency change. Linear programming techniques are used to calculate the productivity change using a panel data set for 49 agricu...

The Japanese electricity industry has experienced regulatory reforms since the mid-1990s. This article measures productivity in Japan’s steam power-generation sector and examines the effect of reforms on the productivity of this industry over the period 1978–2003. We estimate the Luenberger productivity indicator, which is a generalization of the commonly used Malmquist productivity index, usin...

Malmquist yöntemi klasik Veri Zarflama Analizindeki statik incelemedeki eksikliği gidermek amacıyla geliştirilmiş parametrik olmayan bir yöntemdir. Verimliliği konu alan tüm araştırmalar genellikle Analizi ile yapılmaya çalışılmış. Bu yüzden dinamik olan yöntemini kullanan çalışmalar sınırlı kalmıştır. çalışmanın amacı verimliliğin zaman içerisinde nasıl değiştiğine izin veren Toplam Faktör Ver...

We have used the NICMOS NIC1 camera on the Hubble Space Telescope to obtain high-resolution near-infrared images of 27 nearby ultracool dwarfs with formal distance estimates less than 20 parsecs. One target, 2MASS J22551861-5713056, is resolved as a binary system, with a 4:1 flux ratio in the F110W passband. The primary has spectral type L6, and the revised spectroscopic parallax places it at a...
