Efficiency Analysis in general systems theory is an active field of modern research. It covers not only the input-output systems, but other systems in control theory and engineering. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) deals only with a small component of input-output systems. It uses a specific concept of Pareto efficiency and applies it mainly to public sector decision-making units (DMUs) which do not operate under the private market framework governed by market prices and profit maximization.
