摘要
This paper discusses the mathematical programming approach to frontier estimation known as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). We examine the effect of model orientation on the efficient frontier and the effect of convexity requirements on returns to scale. Transformations between models are provided. Methodological extensions and alternate models that have been proposed are reviewed and the advantages and limitations of a DEA approach are presented. © 1990.
