The purpose of this paper is to investigate the international competition power between Korean ports and Chinese ports according to the port efficiency scores of DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) by newly introducing the priority vector of AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) to the DEA method. Empirical analysis shows the followings: First, there was not big changes of DEA rankings when we use the input-oriented CCR and BCC models after introducing the AHP priority vectors to the input variables. Yantian Port's competition power was declined, but that of Busan Port was up in the BCC model. Second, there was some changes of DEA rankings when we use the output-oriented CCR and BCC models after introducing the AHP priority vectors to the output variables. Rankings of Dalian, Qingdao, Shanghai Ports were up. But Shekou, Yantian Ports showed the declined ranking position in the CCR model. In the BBC model, rankings of Shanghai and Busan Ports were up. But those of Shekou and Yantian Ports were declined. The main policy implication based on the findings of this study is that The Ministry of Maritime Affairs & Fisheries in Korea and China should introduce AHP and DEA approaches when they measure the international competition power by using the porrt efficiency scores of DEA.

The high-technological in the electric and electronic industries is recognized in overseas markets as well. However, the competition for technologies in these industries is increasing. Therefore, electric and electronic firms should be more efficient in their production. so, This paper analyzes the efficiency of High-growth Electrical and Electronics firms using DEA model. We evaluate the CCR, BBC efficiency and RTS(return to scale) of 20 Korean high-growth Electrical and Electronics firms. There are a total of 12 efficient DMUs with a BCC of 1. There are a total of 4 efficient DMUs with a CCR of 1. A total of 11 DMUs were IRS in Scale Efficiency and a total of 6 DMUs were CRS in Scale Efficiency and a total of 3 DMUs were DRS in Scale Efficiency. We also suggest the Electrical and Electronics firms which can be benchmarked based on analyzed information.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the development of pain behavior and the expression of CCL2/CCR2 and CX3CL1/CX3CR1 at above and below the level of hemisection of the spinal cord in a rat model. Methods: Spinal cords of adult female Sprague-Dawley rats (n= 16, 200~250 g, 6~8 weeks old) were hemisected at T13 on the right side to develop the spinal hemisection injury model. We compared behavioral responses of the hemisection and of a sham surgery group. Behavioral tests for motor function (by the BBB locomotor scale), and for pain response for mechanical and cold allodynia were assessed postoperatively (PO) for 21 days. Expression of mRNA for chemokines and their receptors (CCL2/CCR2 and CX3CL1/CX3CR1) below and above the level of the spinal cord dissection were examined by RT-PCR. Results: We observed gradual motor improvement and the development of mechanical and cold allodynia on the ipsilateral hindpaw after spinal hemisection injury. We also found upregulation of mRNA expression of CCL2/CCR2 both above and below the level of spinal cord dissection but CX3CL1/CX3CR1 mRNA expression. Conclusion: Upregulation of CCL2/CCR2 is associated with neuropathic pain after spinal hemisection injury. CCL2/CCR2 may play an important role in the development of neuropathic pain after SCI as well as of peripheral neuropathic pain. These findings may improve understanding of the pathophysiological mechanism of neuropathic pain after SCI.

In this research, in order to analyze the efficiency of vocational education and training public services, we analyzed 27 projects conducted in Chungcheongnamdo province in 2014 using DEA. Also we compared the efficiency of 2014 projects with 2013 projects, and verified 3 representative DMU's inefficiency to suggest how to improve the efficiency. The DEA examined the efficiency using CCR model, BCC model and SE(CCR / BCC). As a result of this analysis, the total project costs and the number of projects were increased in 2014 from 2013, but it turned out that the number of inefficient projects were increased and the overall efficiency is decreased. Therefore, in order to improve efficiency, we proposed to allocate labor costs and direct project costs appropriately. In the case of large-scale projects, it was confirmed that reducing the scale of the project is important to increase the overall efficiency. Based on this research, we are presenting a research model that analyzes the efficiency of vocational education and training, and expanding the research area of performance management into the area of various public services.

The bankruptcy possibility of apartment construction firms has been incresed because of the environment of current apartment construction industry. This paper analyzes the efficiency of apartment construction firms using DEA model. We evaluate the CCR, BCC efficiency and RTS of 25 apartment construction firms. We also suggest the apartment construction firms which can be benchmarked based on analyzed information. The result shows that four enterprises whose values of CCR efficiency are 1, and ten enterprises whose values of BCC efficiency are 1. RTS indicates IRS of 21 firms and CRS of 4 firms.

ERP is the general trend of industrial information system and many companies are introducing strategically to strengthen the competitive power. This paper analyzes the efficiency of introducing companies of ERP system using DEA model. We also suggest the introducing of ERP system which can be benchmarked based on analyzed information. We evaluate the CCR, BCC efficiency and RTS of 38 introducing companies of ERP system. The result shows that three enterprises whose values of CCR efficiency are 1, and seven enterprises whose values of BCC efficiency are 1. RTS indicates IRS of 22 companies. DRS of 2 companies and CRS of 4 companies.

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.

In 1997, Korean government established the National Energy and Resources Plan, which targeted from 1997 to 2005 with strategic energy technology development. At the end of 2005, Korean government built a New National Energy and Resources Plan preparing for upcoming 10 years from 2006 until 2015 based on energy technology trees comparing with the previous plan, which based on the energy R&D projects. In this research, we prioritize the relative preferences and efficiency by an AHP/DEA CCR-I and BCC-I integrated model approach considering scale efficiency for well focused R&D and efficiency of developing Greenhouse Gas technologies as an extended research from a view point of econometrics as an extended research.

This paper presents a approach to the measurement of efficiency. Data envelopment analysis(DEA), as it is called, has particular applicability in the service sector. Applying mathematical programming techniques, DEA enables relative efficiency ratings to be derived within a set of analysed units. This paper investigates the efficiency employing DAE-CCR Model and DEA-BCC Model on data for 15 container terminals covering 1998$^{\sim}$2005 in Korea Results of this paper, suggests to some plan for operation strategy in Container terminals.

DEA(data envelopment analysis) is a non-parametric technique for measuring and evaluating the relative efficiencies of a set of entities with common crisp inputs and outputs. In fact, in a real evaluation problem input and output data of entities often flucturate. These fluctuating data can be represented as linguistic variables characterized by fuzzy numbers. Based on a fundamental CCR model, a fuzzy DEA model is proposed to deal with fuzzy input and output data, Furthermore, a model that extends a fuzzy DEA to a more general case is also proposed with considering the relation between DEA and RA (regression analysis) . the crisp efficiency in CCR modelis extended to an L-R fuzzy number in fuzzy DEA problems to reflect some uncertainty in real evaluation problems.
