“…Despite the fact that the deployed software platform is oriented to local execution, it could easily be upgraded in the future to operate in a cloud computing environment. This may represent an effective alternative to minimise costs, increase accessibility, provide elasticity to customer's demands, and promote resource sharing and agile development [35].…”

“…De tal manera, se considera que las industrias de la confección se caracterizan por tener ciclos de vida cortos, demanda impredecible, distribución rápida, preferencias erráticas de los clientes y compras impulsivas, dificultades para realizar operaciones comerciales transfronterizas y estancamiento de las condiciones económicas [11], [14], las aplicaciones en la nube proporcionan servicios útiles para simplificar las operaciones comerciales, reducir las operaciones de las TIC y los costos de gestión y liberar recursos críticos y presupuestos para proyectos innovadores discrecionales. El desafío principal del sector radica en conectar los procesos de la cadena de suministro a la nube, lo cual se obtiene por medio del intercambio de información y conocimientos, la integración de aplicaciones y la alineación de procesos, mejorando así la capacidad de una empresa para ofrecer soluciones técnicas rápidamente [15], [16]. Por ello, hoy día existen sistemas de computación basados en Internet, diseñados especialmente para la planificación de la producción, la gestión de materias primas, el cálculo de costos, el procesamiento de pedidos, el muestreo, el control de la preparación del pedido y la entrega final del producto [11].…”

“…Economics is the major consideration of a firm to select appropriate supply chain cooperation partners [6,8,13,14,74], especially under cloud computing environment. Because cloud computing has the features of elasticity, scalability, and pay per use [18,75], businesses do not need to invest or hire employees on their servers to take care of them; in contrast, they only need to pay on need [76]. The use of cloud computing services can convert fixed costs into variable costs, saving a lot of time and money [77].…”

“…In addition, cloud computing based system is totally different from traditional IT based system, all supply chain cooperation partners' data will be stored on cloud. If the credibility of an alternative supply chain partner is not good, which may damage the whole supply chain reputation due to the characteristics of "shared environment" and "data concentration" of cloud Mathematical Problems in Engineering computing [16,19,75], hence, we consider credibility as an organizational factor on the supply chain partner selection problem under cloud computing environment.…”
