ABSTRACT

The increase of cargo volumes and vessel demand has led port authorities to improve infrastructure, enlarge area, and construct a hub port in Asia. This study applies the Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) model to 12 Asia major ports. This study tries to apply the Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) model to 12 Asia major ports. DEA is a methodology that compares the relative efficiency of each decision making unit(DMU) with similar input and output structure, and is specially very useful when a form of production function of each DMU such as a port is not known. DEA provides the extent of inefficiency of DMUs, which is practically useful information (like the efficiency score and reference sets) required to improve efficiency. This paper aims to analyze and compare the competitiveness of 3 major Korean ports, 3 major Chinese ports, 3 major Japanese ports, and 3 major Taipei using Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) windows analysis based on 2006-2010 data from Containerization International Yearbooks. Through this study, we will investigate the efficiency of these major East Asian ports and demonstrate the trend of the efficiency.
