Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleTHE LINEAR PROGRAMMING APPROACH ON A-P SUPER-EFFICIENCY DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS MODEL OF INFEASIBILITY OF SOLVING MODELChiao-Ping Bao, Chen-Hu Jeng, Ching-Chung Guey, Chien-Liang LinThe traditional CCR or BCC model in DEA for DMU assessment often come out with multiple efficiency units, which cause problems in rank ordering. Therefore, we intended to improve level of discrimination among Decision Making Units (DMUs). The present study thus seeks to solve the above-mentioned problems of discrimination and infeasible solutions in A-P super-efficient mode by proposing a feasible … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2014 · 6,839 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAn Enhanced Russell Measure of Super-Efficiency for Ranking Efficient Units in Data Envelopment AnalysisAli Ashrafi, Azmi Bin Jaafar, Lai Soon Lee, Mohd Rizam Abu BakarProblem statement: Conventional Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) helps decision makers to discriminate between efficient and inefficient Decision Making Units (DMUs). However, DEA does not provide more information about the efficient DMUs. Super-efficiency DEA model can be used in ranking the performance of efficient DMUs. Because of the possible infeasibility of radial super-efficiency DEA model, the ranking has been limited to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,798 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRendezvous with Tat: Transactivator of Transcription during Human Immunodeficiency Virus PathogenesisSneham Tiwari, Madhavan P.N. Nair, Shailendra K. SaxenaAcquired immune deficiency syndrome is a deadly disease caused by HIV, declared as a global catastrophe engulfing millions of lives per year. It took ~1.8 million lives in the year 2010 alone, as per reports of UNAIDS. HIV-1 is an enveloped retrovirus, having genome composed of two copies of ssRNA. It attacks the T-lymphocytes of the hosts, causes several multifaceted … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 7,625 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Different Exogeneous Compounds on Biosorption of EndosulfanDeepika Dave, A. K. DikshitProblem statement: Organochlorine pesticide endosulfan is widely used as a replacement for DDT and dieldrin in many parts of the world. Presence of residual pesticides in the water, air and soil environment was confirmed since 1960s. Such Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) are of concern because of their long-term subtle effects on hormones, the immune system and reproduction. Therefore, it becomes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 7,202 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordComparison of an AI-Based Controller for a Positive Output Superlift DC-DC ConverterRicha Adlakha, Ashish Grover, Neha Chaudhary et al.DC-DC converters have emerged as crucial components in various industrial applications and form an integral part of power supplies based on switch-mode. Solar energy has garnered increasing significance owing to the scarcity of non-renewable fuels and its abundant availability. Photovoltaic (PV) technology, characterized by the arrangement of numerous series and parallel-connected PV cells within modules, generates DC output. Consequently, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 17 Feb 2026 · 1,542 accessesView PDF Cite
