Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is widely used in various practical problems as a general framework for efficiency-evaluation by containing the input-output data. With increasingly complex factors practice, portraying uncertainty necessary ensuring reasonableness of results. As probabilistic linguistic term set (PLTS) powerful tool depicting uncertain information comprehensively, we aim to prop...

As the most important node in public transport network, efficiency of a transport hub determines the entire efficiency of the whole transport network. In order to put forward effective transfer schemes, a comprehensive evaluation index system of urban transport hubs’ transfer efficiency was built, evaluation indexes were quantified, and an evaluation model of a multi-objective decision hub tran...

This paper elaborates the mutual relation of energy, economy, environment and sustainable development, analyzes the key factors affecting energy efficiency. By determining the goal and connotation of energy efficiency, this paper establishes the evaluation model of energy efficiency, and constructs the energy utilization efficiency evaluation system of energy supply, economic growth, environmen...

in this research, efficiency of iranian forest and rangeland decision making unit was assessed using non-parametric method. inputs and outputs determined by field research and with applying a delphi method the final input and output variables selected. forty five wood-producing units (forestry plans) in three northern iranian province were studied using data envelopment analysis. the efficiency...

This paper deals with the verification of efficiency of the novel on-chip OBIST (Oscillation Built-In Self Test) strategy by comparison the fault coverage in selected types of active analog integrated filters. Fault coverage obtained by OBIST approach was compared to fault coverage results obtained by the measurement and evaluation of filters’ selected parameters.

Although the processing power of uniprocessor sy5 terns is significantly increasing every year, there is a never ending quest for peak performance. The so called grand challenges in computing require more computing power than a single uniprocessor machine can ever offer. Recent advances in parallel processing however has brought the solution of grand challenges into reach. What is usually negle...

An effective evaluation of transportation network efficiency/performance is essential to the establishment of sustainable development in any transportation system. Based on a redefinition of transportation network efficiency, a quantitative efficiency evaluation method for transportation network is proposed, which could reflect the effects of network structure, traffic demands, travel choice, a...
