G.  aAllocating financial resources for competitive projects using a zero sum gains DEA model.h[electronic resource]  c2010  a4-9  aIn this paper we use a Zero Sum Gains Data Envelopment Analysis model (ZSG-DEA) to allocate financial resources for competitive projects managed by the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa) research centers. The initial output measurement in the production process modeled is the amount of financial resources available, uniformly distributed among research centers. The input variables are proxies for the intensity of projects externally funded, quality of project management, and level of participation in complex researches. The allocation proposed has maximum global efficiency.  aDEA  aEfficiency  aResouce allocation  aZero sum gains1 aSOUZA, G. da S. e  tENGEVISTAgv. 12, n.. 1, p. 4-9, junh, 2010.
