Analýza efektivnosti lesnického sektoru v zemích EU
Popelová, Pavlína
The forestry sector is constrained by very critical conditions, which can be caused by significant climate changes. Therefore, it is important to have a support technique that will be used to decide on further procedures. The goal of the work was to determine the efficiency of selected states of the European Union for the period 2015—2020. The non-parametric data envelope analysis method was used to evaluate the efficiency. The CCR model with input orientation was chosen. Three input and two output variables were used for the efficiency analysis. On the basis of the chosen model, the efficiency of individual states was calculated, according to which it was found that only three states were efficient in all monitored periods. The lowest estimated rate of efficiency was for Bulgaria. According to the calculation of the Malmquist index, it was proven that most states achieved an improve-ment in the overall situation in the monitored period. A cluster analysis was car-ried out for the selected countries, where it was found that the development of the countries in this sector is stable over time.
Efficiency evaluation models and their applications
MARKOVÁ, Klára
Thesis themed "Efficiency evaluation models and their applications" deals with mathematical models for the efficiency evaluation of comparable production units and targets the utilization of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for this purpose. The thesis aims first to describe DEA models and mention possibilities of their application and then to practise the theoretical knowledge by using proper software in a factual instance. To reach this aim the thesis is composed of two parts {--} theoretical abstract and practical application. The abstract contains basic theory of DEA: fundamental principles, input data and results and description of primary, alternate and modified models. A summary of software applications that can evaluate efficiency using DEA follows. The abstract is closed with some real examples of DEA applications in practice. The second part of the thesis arose from cooperation with a fire department of a factual region of the Czech Republic. The efficiency of its 16 fire stations is compared by using a proper DEA model. A number of actions (output) and a number of employees, a level of fire equipment and an inside area (inputs) are established for each fire station on the strength of the fire department{\crq}s statistics, databases and estimations. The efficiency calculation is performed through the use of the Frontier Analyst Professional, software application specially made for the DEA analysis. Regarding the outputs uncontrollable character an input-oriented DEA model is chosen for the calculation of the fire stations efficiency. A result of the DEA efficiency analysis consists in separating the effective and ineffective fire stations of the surveyed fire department. The potential improvement (inputs decrease), necessary to reach the maximal efficiency, is proposed to each ineffective fire station. This suggestion is further adapted with respect to the real feasibility and the Czech legislative order. The practical part of the thesis is concluded with appreciation to what degree the stated targets were reached and to what degree the application of the DEA method to comparing the factual fire stations efficiency was rewarding.
