One of interesting subjects in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is estimation of congestion of Decision Making Units (DMUs). Congestion is evidenced when decreases (increases) in some inputs re- sult in increases (decreases) in some outputs without worsening (im- proving) any other input/output. Most of the existing methods for measuring the congestion of DMUs utilize the traditional de nition of congestion and assume that inputs and outputs change with the same proportion. Therefore, the important question that arises is whether congestion will occur or not if the decision maker (DM) increases or de- creases the inputs dis-proportionally. This means that, the traditional de nition of congestion in DEA may be unable to measure the con- gestion of units with multiple inputs and outputs. This paper focuses on the directional congestion and proposes methods for recognizing the directional congestion using DEA models. To do this, we consider two di erent scenarios: (i) just the input direction is available. (ii) none of the input and output directions are available. For each scenario, we propose a method consists in systems of inequalities or linear pro- gramming problems for estimation of the directional congestion. The validity of the proposed methods are demonstrated utilizing two nu- merical examples.

A school system can be visualized as a firm utilizing capital and labor to produce its output. It must compete with other firms in purchasing its inputs. It is broadly concerned with efficient use of resources to produce its product. However, there is no well-defined product nor a price that can be attached to its product, and most of its product is not directly sold. Users (students) exert little pressure to increase efficiency, not only because they lack mature judgment and are unaware of input-output relationships (often inputs as well as outputs are ill-defined and uncertain), but also because efficiency gains are not passed to users. Furthermore, factors outside the school system influence output throughout the long production process. Even if the price mechanism does not work, economic principles can still be used in education to improve decision making.

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a powerful tool for evaluating and improving the performance of a set of decision-making units (DMUs). Empirically, there are usually many DMUs exhibiting “efficient” status in multi-input multioutput situations. However, it is not appropriate to assert that all efficient DMUs have equivalent performances. Actually, a DMU can be evaluated to be efficient as long as it performs best in a single dimension. This paper argues that an efficient DMU of a particular input-output proportion has its own specialty and may also perform poorly in some dimensions. Two DEA-based approaches are proposed to measure the dimension-specific efficiency of DMUs. One is measuring efficiency in multiplier-form by further processing the original multiplier DEA model. The other is calculating efficiency in envelopment-form by comparing with an ideal DMU. The proposed approaches are applied to 26 supermarkets in the city of Nanjing, China, which have provided new insights on efficiency for the managers.

A complex tactical display terminal has been designed with operator input/output utility identified as an important criterion for design emphasis. Careful attention to the locations and interactions between the components of a user-computer interface has resulted in a display terminal capable of supporting the communication, analysis, and decision making tasks required of operators in automated command and control systems.

Although social based, Zakat Institutions (OPZ) need to uphold professionalism, transparency and accountabilityin its management. Most recently, Zakat Core Principles is known as the measurement of zakat fundmanagement. This study would try to measure the efficiency of DompetDhuafa�s program as Decision Making Unit (DMU) in the level of efficiencyusing Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. And also the research would look at the possibility of potential improvement from inefficient DompetDhuafa�s programs,input-output contribution and the reference contribution of the DMU.The results show that there are 6 DMU that efficient (100%) and inefficient as much as 18 DMU. The most inefficient program is wakaf fund (2012). In general, the main factor inefficiency ofDompetDhuafa program from 2010 to 2013 due to the distribution fund of DompetDhuafa program such as zakat, wakaf, humanity etc to ashnaf which is still less optimal.The distribution fund also has to increase up to 75.38%, then it is able to resolve the problem of poverty.

In banking system the evaluation of productivity and performance is the key factor among the fundamental concepts in management. For identify the potential performance of a bank efficiency is the parameter to evaluate effective banking system. To measure the efficiency of a bank selection of appropriate input-output variables is one of the most vital issues. The suitable identification of input-output variables helps to create and identify model in order to evaluate the efficiency and analysis. The Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a mathematical approach used to measure the efficiency of identified Decision Making Units (DMUs). The DEA is a methodology for evaluating the relative efficiency of peer decision making units of identified input/output variables for the financial year 2018-19. In this study the basic DEA CCR, BCC models used for measure the efficiency of DMUs. In addition to these models for minimize the input excess and output shortfall Slack Based Measure (SBM) efficiency used. The SBM is a scalar measure which directly deals with slacks of input, output variables which help in obtain improved efficiency score compare with previous model. The result from the analysis is

Over the past three years, cinematic virtual reality (CVR) has emerged as a form of media storytelling that takes advantage of the immersive properties of VR technology. However, as a practice it poses a number of challenges for the writer–director used to controlling the frame through which the viewer experiences the narrative. This research outlines the making of Entangled (a live-action, stereoscopic, VR experience incorporating ambisonic audio) and reflects on concept development and production decision-making with reference to the emerging body of academic knowledge about cinematic VR, in particular ideas about the position of the viewer and the nature of narration. The research addresses some of the gaps in knowledge in these areas, reconciling theoretical positions with a deep understanding of the realities of production processes.
