Abstract
In Section 1.2.9, the original model of data envelopment analysis (DEA), developed by Charnes, Cooper, and Rhodes [8], was introduced. With their study, DEA began as a new approach for efficiency and productivity analysis. They described DEA as a "mathematical programming model applied to observational data [that] provides a new way of obtaining empirical estimates of extremal relationships such as the production functions and/or efficient production possibility surfaces that are a cornerstone of modern economics" [34, p. 8].
