data envelopment analysis (dea) is a mathematical programming method in operations research that can be used to distinguish between efficient and inefficient decision making units (dmus). however, the conventional dea models do not have the ability to rank the efficient dmus. this article suggests bootstrapping method for ranking measures of technical efficiency as calculated via non-radial mod...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is one of the popular and applicable techniques for assessing and ranking the stocks or other financial assets. It should be noted that in the financial markets, most of the times, the inputs and outputs of DEA models are accompanied by uncertainty. Accordingly, in this paper, a novel Robust Data Envelopment Analysis (RDEA) model, which is capable to be used in t...

Abstract of Re-engineering of Industrial CMMI Through this research, I have established a general strategy to appraise an organization against a scale of five process maturity levels whilst maintaining a strong mechanics of CMMI. Reengineering of industrial CMMI proposes a novel method for Industrial Competence ranking of those organizations/companies which are targeting various CMM...

this paper will investigate the optimum portfolio for an investor, taking into account 5 criteria. the mean variance model of portfolio optimization that was introduced by markowitz includes two objective functions; these two criteria, risk and return do not encompass all of the information about investment; information like annual dividends, s&p star ranking and return in later years which...
