the measurement of rts amounts measures a relationship between inputs and outputs in a production structure. there are many different ways to calculate rts in primal or dual space. but in more realistic cases, governments usually intervene on dmu’s behavior as regulatory agency, this clearly represent a set of limitations and restrictions on behaviors of dmus, so very few decisions in dmus are ...

the calculation of rts amounts to measuring a relationship between inputs and outputs in a production structure. there are many methods to measure rts in the primal space or the dual space. one of the main approaches is using the multiplier on the convexity constraint. but returns to scale measurements in dea models are affected by the presence of regulatory constraints. these additional constr...

In the process of production, some of the inputs are fixed and cannot easily be changed, such as work hours of workers and hours of administrative or work, these types of inputs are fixed and others are variables. In this paper, by considering some inputs or outputs which are limited, their amounts must be integrated; this concept for integer data is extended. We show the importance of subject ...

Resource allocation and optimal leveling are among the top challenges in project management. This paper presents a DEA-based procedure for determining an optimal level of inputs to produce a fixed level of outputs. To achieve this goal, we assume that the levels of outputs can be forecasted in the next season and the procedure will determine optimal level of inputs for all DMUs. Such as some of...
