Summary/Abstract: In the Multi-Criteria Decision Making problems, methods like TOPSIS, variants of the Synthetic Measure of Development or Generalised Distance Method are used. All of them are resolved by creating the synthetic variable, obtained by normalisation of variables and calculation of weighed distance of every decision variant from the pattern or (and) anti-pattern. The goal of the article is the analysis, how the normalisation method influences the ranking of decision variants obtained by means of the Generalised Distance Method.
