| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣海洋大學 === 航運管理學系 === 94 === According to the statistic of Containerisation International Yearbook, the development of the international Asian container ports is inseparable from the economic growth of main-land China. While the economic position of China is getting important and pressing the growth space of Taiwan and other neighbor Asian countries, Asian countries get more commercial opportunities with the opening of China and the increasing weights of regional trade. Therefore, this research intends to discuss and estimate the efficiencies of the top 20 international container ports in Asia.
Evaluating the efficiency of the target DMU with traditional Data Envelopment Analysis is to determine the most beneficial multipliers of input and output and derive the best efficiency that the target DMU can achieve with these multipliers. In other words, the efficiency obtained by DEA is the most beneficial one. For balance, TOPSIS is employed to aggregate efficiencies in different aspects. Six inputs which are number of cranes, berth length, number of berths, number of tugs, terminal area, terminal storage and one output which is container volumes are adopted to evaluate the performance of the top 20 international container ports in Asia in 2004.
CCR and TOPSIS are employed to analyze and rank the efficiencies in 2004 of international container ports in Asia. It is revealed that the most efficient ports are Singapore port, Guangzhou port and Shenzen port and the least efficient ports are Manila port, Taichung port and Yokohama port respectively.
