Abstract

Technology selection is an important component of management of technology. The assumption of classical technology selection models is based on complete homogeneity of technologies. The objective of this paper is to propose an innovative method for selecting slightly non-homogeneous technologies. A numerical example demonstrates the application of the proposed method.
