In homological algebra and algebraic topology it is often natural to consider operations “up to homotopy”. However, treating homotopic maps as equal may have its own challenges, for instance concerning well-definedness and functoriality of various constructions. One natural attempt to remedy this is to explicitly record homotopies as part of the category. Iterating this idea (that is also recording homotopies between homotopies, and so on), one arrives at Stasheff’s definition of a stong homotopy structure (or A-infinity structure).
