the performance of a decision making unit (dmu) can be evaluated in either across-sectional or a time-series manner, and data envelopment analysis (dea) is a useful method for both types of evaluation. the malmquist productivity index (mpi) evaluates the change in efficiency of a dmu between two time periods. it is defined as the product of the catch-up and frontier-shift terms. in this paper, ...

bankruptcy in the same amount of time and history is very rampant and therefore the vision of the future can be prevented. using data envelopment analysis (dea) and malmquist index can precise evaluating of the performances of many different kinds of decision making units (dmu) such as hospitals, universities, business firms, etc. in this paper, we will modify directional distance formulation o...

the study examined gender analysis of energy use for rice production in north central nigeria using a sample of 60 rice farmers. an analysis of gender relations provides the information on the different conditions men and women face, and the different effects that policies and programs may have on them. simple descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. energy efficiency and energy pr...

the performance of a supply chain can be evaluated in either a cross-sectional or a time series manner, and data envelopment analysis is a useful method for both types of evaluation. in this paper we develop an index and indicator of productivity change that can be used with radial and non-radial models for supply chain malmquist index. the supply chain malmquist productivity index (scmpi) can ...

This paper argues that parsing and productivity are causally related, the more an affix is prone to parsing in speech perception, the more productive it is likely to be. We support this claim by demonstrating a strona relationship between junctural phonotactics and affix productivity. Affixes which tend to create phonotactic junctures which facilite parsing also tend to be more productive. We s...

This paper evaluates the scale of productivity change of the Bank of Serbia over the period 20072010. In this research the emphasis is put on measuring the productivity based on information from the financial statements using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method and Malmquist index to estimate the individual bank efficiency and productivity changes within this period. The Malmquist productivi...

This study examines the impact of human capital on productivity of labor in Indonesia, using the ARDL analysis data method. This study uses the variable of human capital with a proxy level of labor education, the health status of labor and labor productivity. The data used are sourced from World Bank publications in the period of 1981-2014. The outputs of the analysis with the method of ARDL sh...

this paper is a survey of recent contributions to and developments in the relationship between efficiency and productivity via the production function. the objective is to provide a brief discussion on data and on the methods of measuring efficiency and productivity. first, we introduce the reader to the measurement of partial and total factor productivity in the context of static and firm - sp...
