Evaluating the Impact of Prediction Techniques: Software Reliability Perspective

Maintaining software reliability is the key idea for conducting quality research.This can be done by having less complex applications.While developers and other experts have made signicant efforts in this context,the level of reliability is not the same as it should be.Therefore,further research into the most detailed mechanisms for evaluating and increasing software reliability is essential.A signicant aspect of growing the degree of reliable applications is the quantitative assessment of reliability.There are multiple statistical as well as soft computing methods available in literature for predicting reliability of software.However,none of these mechanisms are useful for all kinds of failure datasets and applications.Hence nding the most optimal model for reliability prediction is an important concern.This paper suggests a novel method to substantially pick the best model of reliability prediction.This method is the combination of analytic hierarchy method(AHP),hesitant fuzzy(HF)sets and technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution(TOPSIS).In addition,using the different iterations of the process,procedural sensitivity was also performed to validate the ndings.The ndings of the software reliability prediction models prioritization will help the developers to estimate reliability prediction based on the software type.

Integrity Assessment of Medical Devices for Improving Hospital Services

The present study examines the various techniques being used to maintain the integrity of the medical devices,and develops a quantitative framework to list these in the sequence of priority.To achieve the intended objective,the study employs the combined procedure of Fuzzy Analytic Network Process(ANP)and Fuzzy Technical for Order Preference by Similarities to Ideal Solution(TOPSIS).We selected fuzzy based decision making techniques for assessing the integrity of medical devices.The suggested methodology was then used for classifying the suitable techniques used to evaluate the integrity of medical devices.Different techniques or the procedures of integrity assessment were ranked according to their satisfaction weights.The rating of the options determined the order of priority for the procedures.As per the findings of the study,among all the options,A1 was assessed to be the most likely option.This means that the integrity of medical devices of A2 is the highest amongst all the chosen alternatives.This analysis will be a corroborative guideline for manufacturers and developers to quantitatively test the integrity of medical devices in order to engineer efficacious devices.The evaluations undertaken with the assistance of the planned procedure are accurate and conclusive.Hence instead of conducting a manual valuation,this experimental study is a better and reliable option for assessing the integrity of the medical devices.

Estimating Security Risk of Healthcare Web Applications: A Design Perspective

In the recent years,the booming web-based applications have attracted the hackers’community.The security risk of the web-based hospital management system(WBHMS)has been increasing rapidly.In the given context,the main goal of all security professionals and website developers is to maintain security divisions and improve on the user’s confidence and satisfaction.At this point,the different WBHMS tackle different types of security risks.In WBHMS,the security of the patients’medical information is of utmost importance.All in all,there is an inherent security risk of data and assets in the field of the medical industry as a whole.The objective of this study is to estimate the security risk assessment of WBHMS.The risks assessment pertains to securing the integrity of the information in alignment with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act.This includes protecting the relevant financial records,as well as the identification,evaluation,and prevention of a data breach.In the past few years,according to the US-based cyber-security firm Fire-eye,6.8 million data thefts have been recorded in the healthcare sector in India.The breach barometer report mentions that in the year 2019,the data breaches found were up to 48.6%as compared to the year 2018.Therefore,it is very important to assess the security risk in WBHMS.In this research,we have followed the hybrid technique fuzzy analytic hierarchy process-technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution(F-AHPTOPSIS)approach to assess the security risk in WBHMS.The place of this empirical database is at the local hospital of Varanasi,U.P.,India.Given the affectability of WBHMS for its board framework,this work has used diverse types of web applications.The outcomes obtained and the procedure used in this assessment would support future researchers and specialists in organizing web applications through advanced support of safety and security.

Fuzzy Based Decision-Making Approach for Estimating Usable-Security of Healthcare Web Applications

Usability and security are often considered contradictory in nature.One has a negative impact on the other.In order to satisfy the needs of users with the security perspective,the relationship and trade-offs among security and usability must be distinguished.Security practitioners are working on developing new approaches that would help to secure healthcare web applications as well increase usability of the web applications.In the same league,the present research endeavour is premised on the usable-security of healthcare web applications.For a compatible blend of usability and security that would fulfill the users’requirments,this research proposes an integration of the Fuzzy AHP-TOPSIS method for assessing usable-security of healthcare web applications.Since the estimation of security-usability accrately is also a decision making problem,the study employs Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis(MCDA)for selecting the most decisive attributes of usability as well as security.Furthermore,this study also pinpoints the highest priority attributes that can strengthen the usable-security of the healthcare web applications.The effectiveness of the suggested method has been tested on the healthcare web applications of local hospitals in Mecca,Saudi Arabia.The results corroborate that Fuzzy AHP-TOPSIS is indeed a reliable technique that will help the developers to design a healthcare web applications that delivers optimum usable-security.
