T his paper consists in measuring the performance of some banks in Tunisia during the year 2004. This purpose we used the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method under a linear programming using GAMS software. Within this analysis, we presented two banking approaches: intermediate and productive;...

The formulas of cost and allocative efficiencies of decision making units (DMUs) with positive data cannot be used for DMUs with negative data. On the other hand, these formulas are needed to analyze the productivity and performance of DMUs with negative data. To this end, this study introduces...

Based on the seminal paper of Farrell (1957), researchers have developed several methods for measuring effi ciency. Nowadays, the most prominent representatives are nonparametric data envelopment analysis (DEA) and parametric stochastic frontier analysis (SFA), both introduced in the late 1970s....

In certain circumstances, both researchers and policy makers are faced with the challenge of determining individual efficiency scores for each decision making unit (DMU) under consideration. In this study, we use a Monte Carlo experimentation to analyze the optimal approach to determining...
