Green supply chain management (GSCM) has become a method to improve environmental performance. Under stakeholder pressures, forces and regulations, companies need to improve the GSCM practice, which are effected by practices such as green purchasing, green design, product recovery, and...

To meet green supply chain management’s requirements of a company and its transportation service providers (TSPs), it is essential to set clear, achievable, and realistic targets. This paper proposes two data envelopment analysis (DEA) approaches to find targets for two-stage network...

Quality function deployment (QFD) is a proven tool for process and product development, which translates the voice of customer (VoC) into engineering characteristics (EC), and prioritizes the ECs, in terms of customer's requirements. Traditionally, QFD rates the design requirements (DRs) with...

Supplier selection has a strategic importance for every company. Hybrid integer data is one of the models in data envelopment analysis (DEA). In many real world applications, data are often stochastic. A successful approach to address uncertainty in data is to replace deterministic data via...

Data envelopment analysis-discriminant analysis (DEA-DA) has been used for predicting cluster membership of decision-making units (DMUs). One of the possible applications of DEA-DA is in the marketing research area. This paper uses cluster analysis to cluster customers into two clusters: Gold...

The operational performance of airline includes production and consumption technologies for transporting passengers and cargoes. By determining the performance of airlines' operations one can get further insights from the obtained results and can develop appropriate policy for improving the...
