Abstract: | This paper attempts to provide a systematic approach to the DEA model building. To this end, we try to identify some essential aspects of DEA modelling. Three key building blocks in a DEA model are identified: they are preference order, production possibility set and performance measure. It is shown that the preferences and performance measurements used in the standard DEA models are only particular examples in this framework. It is also illustrated in this work that this methodology is useful in building new DEA models to handle nonstandard applications such as those involve non-Pareto preferences or undesirable inputs-outputs. |
