  • Anna Domagała

Abstract

W artykule przedstawiono rozważania dotyczące pojęcia względnej efektywności technicznej ze szczególnym naciskiem na metodę Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Omówiono ideę metody na prostym przykładzie. Następnie szczegółowo zanalizowano podstawowy model CCR oraz dokonano krótkiego przeglądu modyfikacji i rozszerzeń modelu podstawowego.
