Regional Performance Measurement and Improvement New Developments and Applications of Data Envelopment Analysis /

This is the first book to fully introduce a newly developed distance friction minimization (DFM) model, which is one of the new efficiency improvement projection approaches in data envelopment analysis (DEA). The DFM model can produce a most effective solution in efficiency improvement projections f...
