this paper aims at providing a new model based on data envelopment analysis (dea) to prioritize project risks. it is clear that the large amounts of involved capitals, the long term of infrastructure projects’ implementation, and the project management problems in on-time completion of projects indicate the necessity of paying particular attention to this issue and conducting applied research i...

Today, one of the most important problems of decision makers in most organizations is to choose the best supply chain. The main objective of this paper is to choose the best supply chain. To select the best supply chain this paper presents a model based on goal programming and network data envelopment analysis (NDEA). The proposed model enables decision makers to compare supply chains with pred...

Today the most organizations (e.g. banks and insurance institutes) consist of the various units which under the control of the main organization (unified management) act independently. Sometimes the manager presents some services which incur costs such as advertisement and introducing a new technology. Most organizations consist of several individual units. Resource allocation issue appe...

this paper investigates a procedure for identifying all efficient hyperplanes of production possibility set (pps). this procedure is based on a method which recommended by pekka j. korhonen[8]. he offered using of lexicographic parametric programming method for recognizing all efficient units in data envelopment analysis (dea). in this paper we can find efficient hyperplanes, via using the para...

The purpose of the current research is to provide a performance appraisal system capable of considering the value chain network structure of research and development (R&D) projects for Complex products and systems (CoPS) under uncertainty of data. Therefore, in order to achieve this goal, a network data envelopment analysis (NDEA) approach and the possibilistic programming to provide a new fuzz...

Due to the complexity and uncertainty involved in real world decision problems, determination interpretation of Decision Makers' preference relations remain a challenging task for them. This paper develops novel procedure incorporating information efficiency analysis Making Units. The Units is defined spirit Data Envelopment Analysis, complemented with Maker's information. Our begins by aiding ...

in some situations the producers desire to maximize total profit of decision making units (dmus) while the inputs and outputs prices of dmus change from one time period to another. in this paper, the researchers develop productivity index when producers are going to maximize total profit when the price of inputs and outputs are known.the proposed method uses all price information about inputs a...

Traditional Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) models evaluate the efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) with common crisp input and output data. However, the data in real applications are often imprecise or ambiguous. This paper transforms fuzzy fractional DEA model constructed using fuzzy arithmetic, into the conventional crisp model. This transformation is performed considering the goal pr...

in data envelopment analysis, the relative efficiency of a decision making unit (dmu) is defined as the ratio of the sum of its weighted outputs to the sum of its weighted inputs allowing the dmus to freely allocate weights to their inputs/outputs. however, this measure may not reflect a the true efficiency of a dmu because some of its inputs/outputs may not contribute reasonably in computing t...
