Data envelopment analysis (DEA) measures the relative efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) with multiple performance factors that are grouped into outputs and inputs. DEA has proven to be superior to simple aggregation of performance measures, and is also useful for evaluating the performance of construction companies for comparison with competitor performance. The purpose of this study was to survey literatures on the application of DEA methodology and to propose a methodological scheme to measure the performance of construction organizations. Articles on previous studies were surveyed and examined as part of a comprehensive review. The survey revealed that the application of DEA in the construction industry was li mited. Further, the survey indicated that there is a need for the development of a methodological framework on the special goals and subjects of performance measurement, methods of data structure and collection, selection of appropriate DEA models, analysis of results, and post-test. Based on the survey, this study identified and discussed the types of major issues and topics for future studies from a methodological perspective, which could be helpful to researchers interested in using DEA to study performance issues in construction organizations.

The structure of universities needs to be adjusted and reformed to cope with the decrease in admission resources and the quality of education due to the low birth rate and aging population. Such a policy is receiving much attention. To analyze the relative efficiency of private universities in Korea from the perspective of resource and performance, this study evaluated the efficiency of private university operation by applying a DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) technique. The DEA measurements were compared with the diagnosis results of the department of education (Government) in 2018. The input and output variables used in the research analysis were utilized by the university's notification materials (public disclosure information). An analysis of the operational efficiency showed that 48% (12 universities) of the 25 DMUs (Decision Making Unit) were efficient for DEA-BCC models and that some of the capacity-building universities were operating efficiently. In addition, the DEA analysis found ways to improve inefficient groups through DEA-Additive results. This paper can be meaningful because it confirmed the relative efficiency of private universities and suggested improvement directions through the DEA method, which is characterized by the simultaneous consideration of various input and output factors. This will help apply the limited resources related to the input and output elements of each university.

This study aims to implement an empirical research about the efficiency of container Ports, and to suggest an effective strategy which can operate container Ports more well. This paper presents a new approach to the measurement of efficiency. Data envelopment analysis(DEA), as it is called, has particular applicability in the service sector. This study applies DEA to provide an efficiency measurement for fifty three container ports including Pusan Port. As a result, we suggest several ideas that can improve the efficiency of container terminals. They are as follows. Firstly, we discriminate between efficient and inefficient container ports and then present a method that can move to efficiency container terminal and a benchmarking port. Secondly, we evaluate the efficiency of Pusan port, and grasp the position at the present time, suggest an advanced direction in future.

본 연구에서는 최근에 투입과 산출관계가 복잡한 비영리기관의 운영효율성을 평가하는데 많이 적용되고 있는 DEA분식기법을 이용하여 국내일반은행의 생산성을 상대적 개념에서 측정하고, 은행감독원에 의한 경영평가와 금융감독위원회의 은행퇴출평가 결과를 비교하여 봄으로서 평가결과가 타당성이 있는지 여부를 알아보았다. 금융감독위원회의 평가는 수익성, 건전성, 유동성, 내부유보 등 비율분석에 의한 평가와 BIS비율 등을 고려하여 평가해 왔기 때문에 다산출물 대 다투입물이 상호작용하는 것을 무시하고 있다는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 그리고 은행감독원의 평가와 DEA기법에 의한 경영효율성 간에는 상당한 차이가 있는 것으로 드러났다. 본 연구 분석결과로는 1995년도 효율성 값이 하위 5개 은행은 국민은행, 충북은행, 광주은행, 경남은행, 평화은행이며, 1996년도 효율성 값이 하위 5개 은행은 광주은행, 제주은행, 동남은행, 전북은행, 국민은행, 1997년도의 효율성 값이 하위 5개 은행은 대동은행, 광주은행, 충청은행, 충북은행, 전북은행으로 분석되었다. 퇴출은행 5개중 1996년도에 동남은행, 1997년도에 대동은행, 충청은행만이 효율성 값이 하위 5위안에 포함되어 본 연구의 분석결과와 다소 상이한 결과가 분석되었다. 그리고 DEA 분석모형에 의하면 비율분석에서는 점검할 수 없는 은행의 상대적 경영효율성을 분석한 결과가 금융당국의 평가결과와 다소 일치한 점도 있으나 운영효율성 측면에서 퇴출대상은행이 효율성이 높은 은행으로 평가되어 금융감독위원회가 결정한 퇴출대상은행과 DEA 분석결과와는 상이한 결과가 도출되었다.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the productive efficiency of world container ports by using the DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) method and raw data from previous research in measuring the international competitiveness of world container ports. Ports have to cope with rapid changes in shipping environments. In order for a port to compete in the global market, it must provide port services promptly and accurately. Basically, there are two approaches to measuring the international competitiveness of a container port. First, there is the traditional productivity analysis method, which analyzes productivity based on the container port's facilities (efficiency, selectivity, land availability), and by its general capacity (handling ability, storage capacity, terminal productivity). Second there is multi-attribute utility analysis, which considers several elements including the reasons for selecting particular container ports and factors determining international competitiveness. This paper follows the first method (traditional productivity analysis) and extends the limitation of previous studies by using the DEA method newly, and suggesting: the relative productive efficiency of container ports. The main results of this paper are as follows: First, the results of the DEA analysis in terms of world container ports matches that of a previous study (Jun et al., 1993) at a level of 35%. The low ratio is due to the constrained set of input-output elements, the result of only twenty container ports being analyzed in this paper. Second, the result of the DEA analysis in terms of North-East Asia's container ports matches with that of a previous study (Ha, 1996) at a level of 100 percent. Therefore we can conclude that the DEA analysis is the best measurement method for international competitiveness. Policy implications for this study are as follows: First, when port authorities want to measure the international competition power of container ports and enhance their productive efficiency, they should consider the traditional method and newly introduce the DEA method. Second, according to the analysis results of the DEA method, pen authorities should recommend benchmarking ports as reference ports in order to enhance the productive efficiency of container ports that show an efficiency score of below 1.
