DOI: 10.1007/s00181-017-1232-7
Abstract: In this paper we extend the slack-based directional distance function introduced by Färe and Grosskopf (Eur J Oper Res 200(1):320–322, 2010) to measure efficiency in the presence of bad outputs and illustrate it through an… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10898-020-00889-w
Abstract: We provide definitions for Fréchet $$\varepsilon $$ ε -subdifferential and Fréchet $$\varepsilon $$ ε -normals set for functions and sets in the Riemannian manifolds. Then we generalize the notions of Mordukhovich sequential subdifferential and normal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11356-017-9345-2
Abstract: The assessment of productivity change over time and its drivers is of great significance for water companies and regulators when setting urban water tariffs. This issue is even more relevant in privatized water industries, such… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpol.2017.02.014
Abstract: Abstract The term “overcapitalized” is frequently used to describe the condition of various fisheries, and to explain why a fishery is in poor condition from a stock status perspective. Often, the concept of overcapitalization is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/jiot.2024.3427395
Abstract: In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), conventional clustering routing algorithms often lead to uneven distribution of cluster heads (CHs), resulting in imbalanced and high-energy consumption. Addressing these challenges, this study introduces a novel algorithm, termed the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3934/cpaa.2021076
Abstract: The Hadamard semidifferential calculus preserves all the operations of the classical differential calculus including the chain rule for a large family of non-differentiable functions including the continuous convex functions. It naturally extends from the \begin{document}$… read more here.
