Abstract Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) service providers have become increasingly important in the manufacturing industry due to their ability to gather and process vast amounts of data from connected devices, enabling manufacturers to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance product quality. These platforms provide manufacturers with real-time visibility into their production processes and supply chains, allowing them to optimize operations and make informed decisions. In addition, IIoT service providers can help manufacturers create new revenue streams through the development of innovative products and services and enable them to leverage the benefits of emerging technologies… More >

Abstract Many businesses have experienced difficulties in selecting a cloud service provider (CSP) due to the rapid advancement of cloud computing services and the proliferation of CSPs. Many independent criteria should be considered when evaluating the services provided by different CSPs. It is a case of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM). This paper presents an integrated MCDM cloud service selection framework for determining the most appropriate service provider based on the best only method (BOM) and technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS). To obtain the weights of criteria and the relative importance of… More >

Abstract User's data is considered as a vital asset of several organizations. Migrating data to the cloud computing is not an easy decision for any organization due to the privacy and security concerns. Service providers must ensure that both data and applications that will be stored on the cloud should be protected in a secure environment. The data stored on the public cloud will be vulnerable to outside and inside attacks. This paper provides interactive multi-layer authentication frameworks for securing user identities on the cloud. Different access control policies are applied for verifying users on the… More >

Abstract The detection of phishing and legitimate websites is considered a great challenge for web service providers because the users of such websites are indistinguishable. Phishing websites also create traffic in the entire network. Another phishing issue is the broadening malware of the entire network, thus highlighting the demand for their detection while massive datasets (i.e., big data) are processed. Despite the application of boosting mechanisms in phishing detection, these methods are prone to significant errors in their output, specifically due to the combination of all website features in the training state. The upcoming big data… More >

Abstract Cloud computing is becoming popular technology due to its functional properties and variety of customer-oriented services over the Internet. The design of reliable and high-quality cloud applications requires a strong Quality of Service QoS parameter metric. In a hyperconverged cloud ecosystem environment, building high-reliability cloud applications is a challenging job. The selection of cloud services is based on the QoS parameters that play essential roles in optimizing and improving cloud rankings. The emergence of cloud computing is significantly reshaping the digital ecosystem, and the numerous services offered by cloud service providers are playing a vital… More >

Abstract Heterogeneous networks are environments where networks having different topologies and technologies can be connected. In an environment including more than one heterogeneous access network, selection of a bad network may lead to emergence of negative results such as high cost and poor service experience for the users. Ensuring the use of the most effective access network for the personal needs of individuals is a complex decision-making process. In the present study, a multicriteria decision-making system employing fuzzy logic was developed to evaluate and select network service providers in Turkey. Fuzzy logic was used for the More >
