TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY: Getting the most production from available resources. This term needs to be contrasted with a similar term allocative efficiency. You might want to check out the more general term of efficiency while you're at it. Technical efficiency simple means that you do the best job possible of combining resources to make a good . You don't waste material inputs. You don't have workers standing idly around waiting for spare parts. In essence, you produce a good at the lower possible opportunity cost.

TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS: An improvement in the ability to use the factors in the production of goods and services. That is, technological progress is an advance in the technical efficiency with which resources are combined in production. In contrast to factor accumulation, technological progress is an increase not in the quantity of the factor of production, but in the ability to transform the existing ones into output. That is, the ability to produce more output with given inputs or fewer inputs for a given output.

AGGREGATE MARKET ANALYSIS

An investigation of macroeconomic phenomena, including unemployment, inflation, business cycles, and stabilization policies, using the aggregate market interaction between aggregate demand, short-run aggregate supply, and long-run aggregate supply. Aggregate market analysis, also termed AS-AD analysis, has been the primary method of macroeconomic analysis since replacing Keynesian economics in the 1980s. Like most economic analysis, aggregate market analysis employs comparative statics, the technique of comparing the equilibrium after a shock with the equilibrium before a shock.
