摘要
In this paper, we present a DEA-based method for allocating fixed resources or costs across a set of decision making units. in addition, we show how output targets can be set at the same time as decisions are made about allocating input resources. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the application procedure of the proposed approach. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
