Abstract :
In this paper, presenting two simple methods for ranking of efficient DMUs in DEA models that included to add one virtual DMU as ideal DMU and is using the additive model. Note that, we use an ideal point just for comparing efficient DMUs with. Although these methods are simple, they have ability for ranking all efficient DMUs, extreme points and the others, also they are capable of ranking the whole DMUs at special cases that previous methods could not ranked them or they can be ranked with hard computing
