| Abstract | In most models of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), the best performers have the full efficient status denoted by unity (or 100%), and, from experience, we know that usually plural Decision Making Units (DMUs) have this ‘‘efficient status’’. To discriminate between these efficient DMUs is an interesting subject. This paper addresses this ‘‘super-efficiency’’ issue by using the slacks-based measure (SBM) of efficiency, which the author proposed in his previous paper [European Journal of Operational Research 130 (2001) 498]. The method differs from the traditional one based on the radial measure, e.g. Andersen and Petersen model, in that the former deals directly with slacks in inputs/outputs, while the latter does not take account of the existence of slacks. We will demonstrate the rationality of our approach by comparing it with the radial measure of super-efficiency. The proposed method will be particularly useful when the number of DMUs are small compared with the number of criteria employed for evaluation. 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. |
