Emrouznejad (2012). “Measuring productive efficiency using Nerlovian profit efficiency indicator and metafrontier analysis.” Operations Research: An International Journal 15(1): 1 – 15. The aim of this paper is to illustrate the measurement of productive efficiency using Nerlovian indicator and metafrontier with data envelopment analysis techniques. Further, we illustrate how profit efficiency …

Saati (2012). “Efficiency measurement in fuzzy additive Data Envelopment Analysis.” International Journal of Industrial and Systems Engineering 10(1): 1-20. Performance evaluation in conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) requires crisp numerical values. However, the observed values of the input and output data in real-world problems are often imprecise …

Amirteimoori, A. and A. Emrouznejad (2012). “Optimal input/output reduction in production processes.” Decision Support Systems 52(3): 742–747. While conventional Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) models set targets for each operational unit, this paper considers the problem of input/output reduction in a centralized decision making environment. The purpose of this paper is to develop an approach to …
