The Practice of Measuring the Efficiency Coefficient of the Process of System Operation Based on Indicators of Efficiency Components
Abstract
In scientific works based on the analysis of systems with the help of the so-called energy approach, energy conversion efficiency is characterized by the efficiency coefficient of the system. The aim of the article is to examine the developed by the authors methodology for measuring efficiency of the process of system operation based on the author’s indicators of components of process efficiency. It is argued that when analyzing the process of system operation (as a flow of certain subprocesses), one can speak about the impact of its energy, through the objects of influence, on the final result, and therefore the efficiency coefficient of the process can be measured based on the final result of the energy impact — products of the operation process. Approaches to the measurement of these coefficients by means of the author’s indicators of efficiency components of subprocesses of the system operation, based on the author’s models, are proposed. Using the examples of economic and pedagogical systems, the possibility of practical implementation of the developed by the authors methodology for measuring the efficiency coefficient of the processes of system operation is demonstrated, which presents the scientific novelty of the proposed research results. There formed a thought: the ranking scores of relevant indicators contribute to realizing the comparative characteristics of changes in each of the objects involved in the process in space-time arrangement. Based on the example of the economic process it is found that the ranking score of the efficiency coefficient of the process coincides with the ranking score of its effectiveness, but it does not always coincide with the ranking score of the gross product and the efficiency of the process. With the help of mathematical dependencies, there explained the facts of the emerging of such cases: namely, it is proved that the efficiency coefficient of the process and its effectiveness are equivalent in terms of process characteristics. The proposed methodology expands the existing aspects in the context of the analysis of concepts and processes based on the energy approach.
