In this paper, we have developed a parallel DEA model for production systems which are composed of independent parallel subunits, so that each subunit uses its own inputs and a portion of the shared inputs to produce final outputs. Also, we will propose the models to calculate the efficiency of the whole system along with the efficiencies of its subunits.
