The rapid development of the aviation industry has brought about deterioration climate, which makes airline efficiency become a hot issue social concern. As an important nonparametric method, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), been widely applied in evaluation. This paper examines 130 papers published period 1993–2020 to summarize literature involving special application DEA models efficiency. be...

This research presents a new application of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to empirically determine prices of multiple products. The DEA technique is now widely applied to performance analysis and efficiency measurement in economics, business and other areas in social science. This study does not explore such conventional DEA uses, rather directing towards a new DEA application to the determin...

Today, information networks play an important role in supply chain management. Therefore, in this article, clustering-based routing protocols, which are one of the most important ways to reduce energy consumption in wireless sensor networks, are used to optimize the supply chain informational cloud network. Accordingly, first, a clustering protocol is presented using self-organizing map neu...

ROBERT CAMPBELL, in honour of whose nmemory this lecture is held, was one of the great pioneers of aseptic surgery. He was the first surgeon to use rubber gloves in the British Isles, and he was responsible for many advances in our craft. He had a particular interest in the surgery of repair, and his appointment at the Children's Hospital gave him nmany opportunities to restore by means of repa...

Two-stage network data envelopment analysis (DEA) is widely used to evaluate efficiency of different organizations with multiple operations processes or hierarchical structures. Although existing two-stage DEA assumes systems resolve the inherent conflicts between two stages, coordination effect stages usually ignored. Recently, relation traditional “black box” has been studied from perspective...

The purpose of this research paper is to develop a framework to understand the consumer’s preference affecting variables and consumer’s perception choice in telecommunication service providers in India. The present study use a hybrid approach to access the relative efficiency based on fuzzy AHP and DEA model. The fuzzy AHP is used to determine weights of the consumer’s preference as criteria an...

Due to various seasonal and monthly changes in electricity consumption and difficulties in modeling it with the conventional methods, a novel algorithm is proposed in this paper. This study presents an approach that uses Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and ANOVA methods to estimate and predict electricity demand for seasonal a...
