Abstract :
This paper provide an alternative way of performance evaluation on network structure production using data envelopment analysis (DEA). It is believed that any network production can be transformed into a series system where each stage in the series has a parallel structure. Thus, we first present models for simple series structure and parallel structure production under evaluation, separately. Then the models for general network structure production that consists of both the series and parallel structures are given. Performance efficiency including the relationship between the whole production and its divisions in series structure, parallel structure and general network structure are discussed.
