BUKU: Mining Data Envelopment Analysis using Clustering Approach: for Heterogeneous Decision Making Units

This book integrates two important fields of information technology, data mining and data envelopment analysis (DEA), to provide a new tool for measuring the performance of decision making units (DMU). Many investigations have dealt with the DEA models, but few have focused on heterogeneous DMUs, outlier detection, and scalability over large data sets. 

In this book, a comprehensive model is presented. A constraint based clustering method is introduced for early detection of outliers to evaluate the performance scores of non homogeneous DMUs. The book includes the different preprocessing stages used in applying different approaches of data mining. 

Along with the theory, an extensive analysis in assessing the transportation system funding for school districts in the state of North Dakota is provided. This book is originally a Ph.D. dissertation at NDSU,Fargo, ND, USA.

Handbook on Data Envelopment Analysis, COOPER

This handbook covers DEA topics that are extensively used and solidly based. The purpose of the handbook is to (1) describe and elucidate the state of the field and (2), where appropriate, extend the frontier of DEA research. It defines the state-of-the-art of DEA methodology and its uses. This handbook is intended to represent a milestone in the progression of DEA. 

Written by experts, who are generally major contributors to the topics to be covered, it includes a comprehensive review and discussion of basic DEA models, which, in the present issue extensions to the basic DEA methods, and a collection of DEA applications in the areas of banking, engineering, health care, and services. 

The handbook's chapters are organized into two categories: (i) basic DEA models, concepts, and their extensions, and (ii) DEA applications. First edition contributors have returned to update their work.

The second edition includes updated versions of selected first edition chapters. New chapters have been added on: 
·         Different approaches with no need for a priori choices of weights (called “multipliers) that reflect meaningful trade-offs.
·         Construction of static and dynamic DEA technologies.
·         Slacks-based model and its extensions
·         DEA models for DMUs that have internal structures network DEA
·         Selection of DEA applications in the service sector with a focus on building a conceptual framework, research design and interpreting results.

William W. Cooper, Pakar Metode DEA

Professor Emeritus William W. Cooper, an academic giant widely considered to be a father of management science, died Wednesday, June 20, at the age of 97. A high school dropout and former boxing champ, he went on to revolutionize business education and research.

In a career that spanned nearly seven decades and included stints at the University of Chicago, Carnegie Mellon, and Harvard Business School, Cooper was a prolific researcher who was at the forefront of a new way of studying business, emphasizing scientific rigor and integrating disciplines. In the words of one of his star doctoral students, Andrew Whinston, professor at McCombs: “The models Bill pioneered fostered a huge transformation of worldwide company operations. He has, as they say in today’s jargon, a big footprint.”

He was also a fixture on campus, coming to work nearly every day until just a few weeks before his death.
