the investigation of dimensional efficiency for branches of maskan bank in resources collection and facilities allocation: approach of super efficiency model with weight restrictions. the scarcity of financial resources of banks, especially in developing countries like as iran, leads to planning for improving efficiency and productivity. improving efficiency needs to performance measurement and...

The demand for measuring equipments of automatic optical inspection has grown rapidly, because of its benefits of promoted efficiency and higher precision. Instead of manual projection measurements, measurement performance and efficiency can be obviously enhanced by the image measurement system. In this investigation, digital image processing and geometrical measurement principles have been int...

Formal definitions for the components of efficiency and capacity, mathematical formulas for computing overall efficiency, and data collection strategies are proposed for rigorous measurement of equipment efficiency and equipment capacity. Measurement of overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) under the TPM paradigm is revised to become a true quantitative measure of efficiency that we term overal...

Health care institutions worldwide are increasingly the subject of analyses aimed at defining, measuring, and improving organizational efficiency. However, despite the importance of efficiency measurement in health care services, it is only relatively recently that the more advanced econometric and mathematical programming frontier techniques have been applied to hospitals, nursing homes, healt...
