Enabling Robust Service Composition in Cloud Manufacturing with Sustainability Considerations

Abstract

Sustainable development is progressing through all aspects of businesses. Sustainability assessment is considered as a significant appraisal evaluation approach that observes a system performance based on its three pillars criteria in the strategical layer standpoint. Also, there are various uncertainties for having a decent and cost-efficient supply chain network. This paper's goal is to overcome uncertainties by focusing on cloud manufacturing technology from one side and ensuring sustainability through the entire supply network from the other side. The paper has investigated to discover existing and upcoming tools and technologies that complement cloud manufacturing to enhance supplier and customer relations with the manufacturer. The paper has proposed a Collaborative Cloud Service Platform (CCSP) for proposing the best solution considering both sustainability and robust cloud service composition.
