Abstract

In this paper, efficiencies of core technology development projects, conducted by Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, are compared. In the process, DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) is utilized as a main technique for comparing efficiencies. For DEA, input oriented BCC Model is adopted with government grant, recipient expenditure, the number of participating institutions, and project duration as input factors, and the number of patents, the number of papers, and occurred sales as output factors. As a result, next generation mobile communication project turns out to be the most efficient project of all. Therefore, next generation mobile communication project should be benchmarked for the other projects to follow. However, these results should be used only for reference data since every project has a different objective and, of course, is run under a different environment.
