  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems ((LNNS,volume 36))

Abstract

The most expedient way, in our opinion, to generalize the numerous AHP studies is by the formatting of a morphological table and the corresponding block diagram. On the basis of the table, it is possible to take into account unobvious variants that can be missed with a simple search. Thus, the AHP, despite its obvious benefits, requires further research so as it can be successfully applied in the management of supply chains.
