The Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI) is thereby adopted to quantify the patterns and the associated changes of efficiency. An extended evaluation of efficiency, in comparison with selected economies by applying data envelopment analysis (DEA), is conducted accordingly. The study also applies the IPAT (impact-population-affluence-technology) master equation to measure trends of material use efficiency in Taiwan and to compare them with those of other Asia-Pacific countries. Essential indicators are selected to quantify resource productivity associated with the economy-wide MFA of Taiwan. We first present updated information on the material flow analysis (MFA) database in Taiwan. This study is intended to conduct an extended evaluation of sustainability based on the material flow analysis of resource productivity.
