Abstract :
Finding units with the most productive scale size (MPSS) is very important. The use of MPSS in ranking is thus the main idea in this paper. We propose an algorithm in DEA that ranks all extreme and non-extreme efficient DMUs in a number of steps. In this method, units with the most productive scale size are identified in each step and are then ranked. We finally show the application of the method using a numerical example.
