This paper aims to evaluate the factors persuading the BT adoption and also to assess the possible application areas for the adoption of BT. Implementation of the BT process considers multiple criteria and alternatives with uncertain information; therefore, it can be considered as an uncertain multi-criteria decision-making problem. In this context, a hybrid approach is proposed based on the criteria interaction through inter-criteria correlation (CRITIC) and the complex proportional assessment (COPRAS) methods with interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (IVq-ROFS) named as the “IVq-ROF-CRITIC<img>COPRAS” framework. In this approach, the significance values of the factors are computed through novel score function-based CRITIC model, whereas the CRITIC-based COPRAS model is employed to rank different domains/application areas for the adoption of BT under IVq-ROFSs environment. In this regard, a novel score function is introduced with its desirable characteristics. Further, the developed model is executed on a case study of BT adoption considering 14 factors, which confirms the efficiency and applicability of introduced approach. Based on the results, the healthcare BT alternative is most appropriate among the others. To evaluate its permanence, sensitivity analysis with regard to various ratings of decision strategic coefficient is presented under IVq-ROFS context. The strength of the developed approach is emphasized by comparing it with some of the former models under the context of IVq-ROFSs. The proposed extension of the COPRAS approach can be utilized to solve other complex group decision-making problems with uncertainties.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Information Integration","volume":"42 ","pages":"Article 100718"},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142653178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This innovative approach advances the development of a globally sustainable CLSC by focusing on the integration of economic, environmental, and social factors, i.e., the triple bottom line of sustainability. Specifically, we address environmental concerns through the introduction of carbon taxation and enhance social sustainability by exploring the impact of advertising on customer satisfaction. To further refine this model, we classify customers based on their sustainability engagement and apply a fuzzy programming approach to account for uncertainty in customer demand influenced by advertising. To solve this complex global CLSC model, we conduct a thorough analysis of constraints and develop a robust Lagrangian relaxation reformulation. While the initial solution may result in infeasibility, we propose a heuristic algorithm that ensures feasible solutions. Our efficient Lagrangian-based heuristic, incorporating an adaptive strategy, is capable of solving large-scale networks with an approximate 10 % optimality gap.

Recently, digital twin (DT) technology (which refers to a virtual representation of a product, process, or environment) has emerged as a suitable candidate to address the security challenges faced by dynamic CPSs. DT has the capability of strengthening the security of CPSs by continuously mapping the physical to twin counterparts to detect inconsistencies. The existing DT-based security solutions are constrained by untrustworthy data dissemination as well as limited data sharing among the involved stakeholders, which, in turn, limit the ability of DTs to run accurate simulations or make valid decisions. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a modular framework called <strong>TR</strong>usted and <strong>I</strong>ntelligent cyber-<strong>P</strong>hysica<strong>L</strong> syst<strong>E</strong>m (TRIPLE), that leverages blockchain, DTs, and threat intelligence (TI) to secure CPSs. The blockchain-based DT components in the framework provide data integrity, traceability, and availability for trusted DTs. Furthermore, to accurately and comprehensively model system states, the framework envisions fusing process knowledge for modeling DTs from system specification-based and learning-based information and other sources, including infrastructure-as-code (IaC) and knowledge base (KB). The framework also integrates TI for future-proofing against emerging threats, such that threats can be detected either reactively by mapping the behavior of physical and virtual spaces or proactively by TI and threat hunting. We demonstrate the viability of the framework through a proof of concept. Finally, we formally verify the TRIPLE framework to demonstrate its correctness and effectiveness in enhancing CPS security.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Information Integration","volume":"42 ","pages":"Article 100706"},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142573306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
