Popis: Looking in the past one can trace the first origin of MCDM in economical research related to the field of the utility theory [l].That research gave a foundation to the notion of a "rational man" making the best economical decisions. The second origin of MCDM is the field of operation research [2]. The operation research gives tools for a choice of optimal solutions in complex systemsimethods of mathematical programming[3]. The tools are very efficient in solving well structured problems. It is possible also to say that MCDM has an origin in engineering research on military technical systems[4]. Well known results of the research are the systems analysis and the method "cost-efficiency" [5].
