• Power Industry Restructuring and Eco-Efficiency Changes: A New Slacks-Based Model in Malmquist- Luenberger Index Measurement (2014, methodology): “The common models in the direct approaches are hyperbolic efficiency model (Boyd and McClelland, 1999), slacks-based measure (SBM) (Tone, 2001), range adjusted measure (RAM) (Zhou et al., 2006), with the most popular model being directional distance function (DDF) (Chung et al., 1997).”
• Eco-Efficiency of Electric and Electronic Appliances: A Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) (2009, methodology): “This methodology has been extensively used to analyze different types of products such as printers [7], cars [24], software [14 ], etc., as well as to assess the environmental performance of power plants [12, 19], dairy farms [28], paper mills [3, 11], countries [38, 39 ], etc.”

(2006) to measure CO2 emissions of 30 OECD countries.”

• Environmental efficiency assessment of U.S. transport sector: A slack-based data envelopment analysis approach (2016, unknown): “Non-radial efficiency SBM-DEA is found to be very appropriate compared to traditional DEA models (Zhou et al 2006; Hernández-Sancho, 2011).”
• Energy and CO2 emission performance in electricity generation: A non-radial directional distance function approach (2012, background): “10 Although the original slacks-based efficiency measure proposed by Tone (2001) does not contain undesirable outputs, Zhou et al. (2006) and Lozano and Gutierrez (2011) show how slacks-based efficiency measures within a joint production framework of desirable and undesirable outputs can be…”
• Sources of production inefficiency and productivity growth in China: A global data envelopment analysis (2015, methodology): “According to Zhou et al.(2008a), the GTCH reflects the shift in the best practice frontier from t to t+1, and the product of GPCH andGSCHmeasures the change”
• Linear programming models for measuring economy-wide energy efficiency performance (2008, methodology): “McClelland (1999), Boyd et al. (2002), Färe et al. (2004), Watanabe and Tanaka (2007), and Zhou et al. (2006, 2007, 2008b).”
• A non-radial DEA approach to measuring environmental performance (2007, methodology): “When decision makers' interest is to model economic-environmental performance, the slacks in inputs and desirable outputs should be integrated with radial or non-radial environmental performance measures in appropriate ways (Zhou et al., 2006).”
