In Vietnam, fishing is a crucial source of nutrition and employment, which not only affects the development of the domestic economy but is also closely related to exports, heavily influencing the economy and foreign exchange. However, the Vietnamese fishery sector has been facing many challenges in innovating production technology, improving product quality, and expanding markets. Hence, the fishery enterprises need to find solutions to increase labor productivity and enhance competitiveness while minimizing difficulties. This study implemented a performance evaluation from 2015 to 2018 of 17 fishery businesses, in decision making units (DMUs), in Vietnam by applying data envelopment analysis, namely the Malmquist model. The objective of the paper is to provide a general overview of the fishery sector in Vietnam through technical efficiency, technological progress, and the total factor productivity in the four-year period. The variables used in the model include total assets, equity, total liabilities, cost of sales, revenue, and profit. The results of the paper show that Investment Commerce Fisheries Corporation (DMU10) and Hoang Long Group (DMU8) exhibited the best performances. This paper offers a valuable reference to improve the business efficiency of Vietnamese fishery enterprises and could be a useful reference for related industries.

Waqf is a voluntary charity that cannot be disposed of and the ownership cannot be transferred once it is declared as waqf assets. Waqf institutions play an important role in helping the development of Muslims ummah through wealth distribution. State Islamic Religious Councils (SIRCs) in Malaysia are the sole trustee that manage and develop waqf assets. Based on selected input and output, the intermediary approach assumes that cash waqf received as output while total expenditure of SIRCs as input. Under this approach SIRCs act as intermediary between waqif (giver) and beneficiaries. Thus, this paper attempts to analyze the efficiency of waqf institutions in Malaysia by using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method under output-orientation using Variable Return to Scale (VRS) assumptions. Four SIRCs were selected as decision making units (DMU) for the period of 2011 to 2015. The result indicates that changes in average technical efficiency for every year is contributed by both pure technical and scale. However, inefficiency of Malaysian waqf institutions is mostly contributed by pure technical efficiency aspects rather than scale. 2012 showed the highest average technical efficiency with 73.9% as most of the institutions operated in optimum level of input to produce output. Thus, the result suggests that both technical and scale efficiency should be improved to achieve the most efficient and productive level of performance in order to fulfill objectives of the institutions as an intermediary between waqif and beneficiaries.

Efficiency is a topic of great interest because its applications are diverse and rich. It is applied greatly in all scientific disciplines, especially accounting for a very large proportion in economics, finance and accounting. The main objective in this paper is to analyze the effectiveness of banks in Vietnam. In order to investigate this issue, there are several implements to examine bank effectiveness where the data envelopment analysis (DEA) method is widely used. This paper presents details of the DEA method. Using the data collected from banks in Vietnam for the period 2014–2017, the approach is executed to investigate issues of technical efficiency, resource analysis and business efficiency of banks in Vietnam.

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a nonparametric method used to examine the relative efficiencies of Decision Making Units (DMUs) on conditions where there are multiple inputs and multiple outputs. As in all sectors, it is very important for the automotive sector to operate effectively. Therefore, it is also important to measure the efficiency and find the source of the inefficiency. In this study, the performances of the DMU of the automobiles will examine using Data Envelopment Analysis. In this direction, it is aimed to assist consumers in purchasing by calculating the relative efficiencies of automobile models, determining effective and ineffective DMUs according to the wishes of the consumers. Sales price and fuel consumption are determined as input variables; maximum speed, cylinder volume, horsepower, maximum torque, luggage volume, acceleration time from 0 to 100 km are determined as output variables.

The purpose of this chapter is to evaluate the relative efficiency of universities using data envelopment analysis (DEA). The authors developed a map of efficiency indicators of universities depending on the three main functions of any university; i.e., teaching, research, and community service. Using hypothetical data of 27 universities in a given country, the authors developed the inputs and outputs for each of the three main functions of the universities. The DEA revealed some interesting results concerning the efficient and inefficient universities, and how to improve the inefficient ones. Moreover, the DEA was better than the traditional accounting method for performance evaluation. The authors concluded with some recommendations to improve efficiency of universities through the teaching, research, and community service activities. Finally, some implications for the Arab countries were discussed.

Efficiency Change

The present study applies a bootstrapped data envelopment analysis (DEA) procedure to compute bias-corrected measures of agricultural total factor productivity (TFP) change and its components (technical change and technical efficiency change) using a panel data of 19 regions of Bangladesh covering a 23-year period (1987–2009), thereby overcoming the limitation of the lack of statistical inference of the conventional non-parametric DEA. Results revealed that overall productivity grew at a modest rate of 0.03%, mainly powered by technological progress at 0.03% and a negligible decline in technical efficiency at 0.004% with large disparities amongst regions. Six regions in the middle order shifted ranks with regard to TFP change following bias correction. The estimated confidence intervals demonstrated that many regions underwent either progress or regress in productivity performance over time. Investments in research and development (R&D), agricultural extension, and crop diversification are suggested to improve regional inequality and declining technical efficiency.
