AVRUPA BİRLİĞİ ÜLKELERİ ARASINDA İNTERNET KULLANIM ETKİNLİĞİ: SIMAR VE WILSON YAKLAŞIMI

Abstract

Dünya genelindeki bilgisayar ağlarını ve kurumsal bilgisayar sistemlerini birbirine bağlayan elektronik iletişim ağı olan İnternet, günümüzde hayatımızın vazgeçilemez bir parçasıdır. Bu çalışmada Avrupa Birliği’ne üye, üyeliğe aday ve adaylığı resmen kabul edilmiş ülkelerin internet kullanımlarının göreli etkinlik skorlarını ölçmeyi amaçlayan doğrusal programlama tabanlı Veri Zarflama Analizi’ne Simar ve Wilson yaklaşımı kullanılarak ülkelerin internet kullanım etkinliği tahminleri elde edilmiştir.

INTERNET USAGE EFFICIENCY ANALYSIS BETWEEN COUNTRIES IN EUROPE: A SIMAR AND WILSON APPROACH

Abstract

Internet, the electronic communication network that connects worldwide computer networks and institutional computer systems, is an essential part of our lives today. In this study, linear programming based Data Envelopment Analysis which measures the relative internet usage efficiency scores of European Union member states, candidate states and states whose candidacy has officially been approved, has been used and estimates of efficiencies have been obtained by using Simar & Wilson approach

Keywords

• Internet, Data Envelopment Analysis, Bootstrap, Simar and Wilson
