The super-efficiency (SE) model is identical to the standard model, except that the unit under evaluation is excluded from the reference set. This model has been used in ranking efficient units, identifying outliers, sensitivity and stability analysis, measuring productivity changes, and solving two-player games. Under the assumption of variable, non-increasing and non-decreasing returns to sca...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a mathematical programming method for calculatingefficiency of decision making units (DMU). In calculating the efficiency score of unitsthrough DEA we may come up with some efficient units. But the question is among theseefficient units which of them is better. As we know, it is possible to rank inefficient unitsthrough efficiency score; however, for ranking e...

this study was performed in order to evaluate the effects of application of super absorbent on the yield and water use efficiency of cucumber under deficit irrigation conditions in greenhouse. plants cultivated in plastic pots and irrigation emitter with four liters per hour discharge was performed. three levels of irrigation water height (10, 8.3 and 6.2 mm day-1) were used as the main factor ...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) mainly utilizes envelopment technology to replace production function in microeconomics. The input and output of decision making units (DMUs) are projected into the attributes to evaluate or measure their performance. However, if the inputs and outputs are linguistically termed or are fuzzy-numbered, conventional DEA can not easily measure the performance. Theref...

The Hanjiang River is one of the major tributaries Yangtze River, and Basin serves as an important link connecting western eastern regions China. As a significant tourist destination, development tourism industry in great significance for promoting local economic, social, environmental sustainability. study spatiotemporal evolution ecological efficiency beneficial optimizing investment resource...

super eciency data envelopment analysis(dea) model can be used in ranking the performanceof ecient decision making units(dmus). in dea, non-extreme ecient unitshave a super eciency score one and the existing super eciency dea models do notprovide a complete ranking about these units. in this paper, we will propose a methodfor ranking the performance of the extreme and non-extreme ecient u...

We propose a bargaining process supergame over the strategies to play in a non-cooperative game. The agreement reached by players at the end of the bargaining process is the strategy profile that they will play in the original non-cooperative game. We analyze the subgame perfect equilibria of this supergame, and its implications on the original game. We discuss existence, uniqueness, and effici...
