An MCDM method for cloud service selection using a Markov chain and the best-worst method

作者：

Highlights：

• This paper is the first application of Best Worst Method in could service selection.

• A Markov chain is employed to find a pattern of uncertain customer needs.

• The method results in less consistency in comparison with other similar methods.
