Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A dynamic framework is used for production correspondences in which n-vectors of input functions are taken from (L(From + to infinity) (to the Nth Power)), with components which are Lebesgue measurable, and bounded except for a subset of measure zero. With these parent correspondences, a cost-indirect and return-indirect production correspondence is formulated, using a weak star topology for (L(From + to infinity) (To the Nth Power)) which norms vectors of input functions in terms of the cost of a vector over a finite span (O, T), with vectors p of Lebesgue integrable price functions taken from (L(From + to 1)(To the NthPower)). The properties of these indirect production correspondences are developed, and special forms under homotheticity of structure are used to determine index functions for dynamic aggregate expression of direct and indirect production functions.

Download or read book Shipbuilding Production Function An Example of a Dynamic Production Function written by Ronald W. Shephard and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The structure of the production function for a shipyard is expressed as a dynamic activity analysis model, with the activities related by a directed graph for transfer of intermediate products. The direct and indirect production correspondences are calculated by solution of a system of recursive relations, and application is made to a specific example with load leveling. (Author).

Download or read book Intertemporal Production Frontiers With Dynamic DEA written by Rolf Färe and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book extends the efficiency literature to the case of intertemporal models. First, the authors introduce static network models which serve as building blocks for the intertemporal budgeting models and the dynamic models. Next, the authors devote two chapters to productivity measurements, which are considered as comparative static models. Intertemporal budgeting models and dynamic models are taken up subsequently. Each chapter, except the first, contains empirical applications.

Download or read book A CES Indirect Production Function written by Boyan Jovanovic and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper derives an indirect production function that is, in a special case, of a constant elasticity of substitution form. This is not a contribution to the theory of aggregation generally. Instead it is a microfoundation for a specific but popular production function -- the CES -- that helps us express the important concept of the elasticity of substitution in terms of more primitive, and more intuitive concepts of the returns to scale. The paper presents a simple lemma, and then shows that several and diverse applications have a common logical structure: the production function often used in growth theory, the utility function when there is household production, human capital theory, and the concept of the aggregate technology shock.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology is taking on an increasingly central and determining role in so ciety, and can provide contradictory results: wealth on the one hand, but also unemployment, environmental imbalances and other social problems on the other. Manufacturing techniques and production organization are chosen in every country based mainly on the specific needs of the companies, while the real needs of each population are often quite different. Already, in order to prevent all forms of technology from becoming in creasingly "invasive", towards both the natural supply of resources and the specific - though highly differentiated - needs of humanity, technological paths must be identified and followed which are capable of making the vari ous needs compatible, from the standpoint of sustainable development, the conservation and increase in value of natural resources, and the quality of development. This will become increasingly important in the future. This goal is undoubtedly ambitious and difficult to achieve; however, evi dence of the problems caused by generalized, uncontrolled use of technolo gy, all over the world, leads us to believe that intense efforts must be made to achieve this aim. If not, humankind runs the risk of an irreversible degra dation of the most important aspects of economic development and its quali ty. Within this framework, those companies that produce goods and services obviously occupy a central, active role, which they must play with a view both to competitiveness and overall qualification and to contributing to the objectives of sustainable development.

Download or read book Integrative Production Technology written by Christian Brecher and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 1128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This contributed volume contains the research results of the Cluster of Excellence “Integrative Production Technology for High-Wage Countries”, funded by the German Research Society (DFG). The approach to the topic is genuinely interdisciplinary, covering insights from fields such as engineering, material sciences, economics and social sciences. The book contains coherent deterministic models for integrative product creation chains as well as harmonized cybernetic models of production systems. The content is structured into five sections: Integrative Production Technology, Individualized Production, Virtual Production Systems, Integrated Technologies, Self-Optimizing Production Systems and Collaboration Productivity.The target audience primarily comprises research experts and practitioners in the field of production engineering, but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This graduate text develops production theory from a set of reasonable axioms. The theory is presented both in a primal and dual as well as in an indirect (constrained) framework. The basic model leads to a set of efficiency measures which can be readily employed in empirical work. A first draft of the text was used to teach students at Vanderbilt University. The text includes a variety of exercise problems.
