Recently, the investment and importance have been increasing concerning the researches which are based on fundamental studies. In defense science and technology development, the defense research centers are involved in a large portion of developing the potential capability such as defense applied technology, enhanced human resource, etc. In this paper, we analyzed the relative efficiency of 9 research centers(9 DMU : Decision Making Unit) supported by the defense budget, using DEA(Date Envelopment Analysis) method especially with the CCR-I(Charnes, Cooper, Rhodes-Input) model. Some variables are selected such as budget(input data), patent, article and human resource(output data) to be analyzed. Conclusively, the needs to identify performance-indicators, increase incentives to promote the performance and induce enthusiastic participation in defense science and development projects, are suggested via a relative efficiency analysis.

This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of superior appraisal corporations using DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis). DEA is known as a method for evaluating relative efficiency of organizations with multiple inputs and outputs. We used CCR-O and BCC-O DEA models to evaluate relative efficiency of superior appraisal corporations. Input variable is number of appraisers, output variables are total sales and net income. Total of 13 appraisal corporations in Korea were selected for this study, and the data were collected from financial reports for 2008 fiscal year. The result of this study is summarized as follows. First, the average of superior appraisal corporation's technical efficiency score is about 88.3% by applying CCR-O model. Second, the average of superior appraisal corporation's pure technical efficiency score is about 90% and scale efficiency score is about 98.2% by applying BCC-O model. According to the result of DEA, the cause of inefficiency is pure technical efficiency.

Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) models can be used for performance evaluation on governmental funding projects for IT small and medium-sized enterprises associated with multiple-outputs/multiple-inputs. In order to enhance the accuracy of DEA efficiency scores, DEA models with exogenously fixed variables are required where the corporate competency is taken into account. Additionally, it is necessary to use multiple DEA basic as well as extended models so as to relax the restriction on the performance evaluation to relying on a single DEA model. In this study; 1)a DEA data structure is designed including exogenously fixed variables representing corporate asset, revenue and the number of employees at the point in time that the governmental funding project concerned is initiated; 2)DEA basic as well as extended models are established according to the DEA data structure presented abovementioned; and 3)a case study is illustrated with an empirical testbed dataset. As for the DEA basic models, CCR, BCC, Super-efficiency model are adopted. The DEA extended models are developed based on the models associated with noncontrollable and nondiscretionary variables. In the case study, it is explained a comparison of DEA models and also major numerical outcomes such as efficiency scores, ranks derived from each DEA model are integrated using Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) weights. Performance significance with DEA efficiency scores between technical categories are tested based not only on parametric but also nonparametric single-factor analysis of variance method.

Owing to the complexity and modernization of weapon systems, the role of the defense industry in producing military companies has become increasingly important. In the past defense industries, price competitiveness is a key factor in product choice. On the other hand, product quality is becoming increasingly important compared to price competitiveness. In particular, improving the quality efficiency of small and medium defense suppliers is a necessary part of realizing completed weapon systems, and measures are required to evaluate the quality efficiency of small and medium defense suppliers objectively. This study measured the efficiency of quality using DEA, which is one of the decision methodologies. To use DEA, the number of employees (QA Team) and the number of improvement requirements (Through the activity of onsite quality-support team in aeronautical system center) were set as the input variables. In addition, the output variables were based on sales and the number of certification acquisitions (QMS). To analyze the quality efficiency of small and medium defense suppliers in the aeronautical field, both CCR and BCC models were analyzed, and the scale efficiency values were derived. Strategic development plans for small and medium defense suppliers can be guided using the research results.

The construction industry has been recognized as lagging behind other industries in the area of research and development (R&D) due primarily to the lack of R&D funds. To overcome this situation, the Korea Ministry of Construction and Transportation has a plan to expand its investments on the construction R&D up to 1.72 billion US dollars over the next 3 years. Despite this effort, it is still challenging to conduct the quantitative measurement on the efficiency of construction R&D projects, which can be utilized as the objective basis in the reasonable selection of a promising R&D team or in the consequential evaluation of a R&D performance. This study aims to conduct the efficiency analysis on the construction R&D projects to provide the basis for evaluating the performance of research and development. Toward this end, this study performs an efficiency analysis, which reflects all of the input and output data into/from the construction R&D by utilizing the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The proposed methodology can be utilized to make a better decision on the priority of the R&D investments and present a sound basis to suggest the areas to be improved so as to reduce the inefficiency of R&D projects.
