Evaluating operation and coordination efficiencies of parallel-series two-stage system: A data envelopment analysis approach

作者：

Highlights：

• A parallel-series two-stage DEA approach for efficiency assessment is proposed.

• The proposed approach is based on the additive and multiplicative DEA methods.

• The notion of coordination efficiency of network system is introduced.

• Coordination efficiency is the ratio of optimal efficiency over maximal efficiency.
