One of the main features of modern supply chains (SC) is the variability of their parameters and structures caused by objective and subjective factors at different stages of the SC life cycle. In other words, we always come across the SC structure dynamics in practice. Under the existing conditions the SC potentialities increment (stabilization) or degradation reducing makes it necessary to perform the SC structure control and management (including the control of structures coordination). The aim of this investigation is to develop a generalized description of models, methods and algorithms for the SC structure dynamics control.
