Investigating and Comparing Several Centralized Resource Reallocation Methods

Data envelopment analysis is a non-parametric method based on mathematical programming, which is used to evaluate the performance of a set of decision-making units with multiple homogeneous inputs and outputs. One use of data envelopment analysis is the integration of resources and inputs to create new efficient decision-making units. As a classic research topic in the fields of management and economics, the resource allocation problem has gained extensive attention from many researchers, and a large body of research has been conducted accordingly. The present study investigates some of the proposed methods and models of the allocation problem
