Abstract

Due to the existence of limited rationality and information asymmetry, trust between enterprises in the cloud manufacturing environment is characterized by significant complexity. In this paper, to promote the formation of a better trust relationship between enterprises and to ensure the efficient service and stable operation of the manufacturing process to a greater extent, we take into account the subjective cognition of the game parties from the perspective of service combination, introduce the prospect theory, construct an evolutionary game model of “service demander-service provider-platform supervisor,” analyze the evolutionary stabilization strategy, and explore the influence of different factors on the interenterprise trust relationship in the cloud manufacturing environment through numerical simulation. The results show that enhancing the synergy between multiple service providers has a significant impact on improving trust between cloud manufacturing enterprises. The rewards and punishments of the cloud manufacturing platform are conducive to improving interenterprise trust. There exists a critical value dividing opportunistic behavior into explicit and implicit behaviors. When it is less than the critical value, opportunistic behavior is implicit and the service demander trusts the service provider and the transaction continues; when it is greater than the critical value, opportunistic behavior is explicit and the service demander no longer trusts until the service provider is fully trustworthy. The inhibitory effect of good transaction history on opportunistic behavior is evident. Finally, the reasons and effects of the above factors and the subjective perceptions of the game parties in cloud manufacturing are discussed, as well as their concrete manifestations in the CASICloud (China Aerospace Science&Industry Cloud) and relevant suggestions are put forward.

Highlights

  • With the development and promotion of the new generation of information technology, the development model of the manufacturing industry has undergone profound changes [1]

  • (2) e preferences and limited rationality of enterprises in the cloud manufacturing environment can be fully considered by introducing prospect theory, and a three-party trust evolution game model for cloud manufacturing service providers, service demanders, and platform supervisors can be constructed based on the service composition perspective, which improves the existing evolution game variables and parameters on the one hand, and extends the research on the other

  • Cloud manufacturing service composition is an orderly combination according to the user’s needs, task processes, and the internal logic of the business, which requires the participation of multiple service entities. e whole process includes a large number of links and steps, making the cooperation mode between multiple service entities unpredictable and unmanageable. e degree of synergy between them will directly affect the service process and indirectly affect users’ trust in services. irdly, the main participants in the service composition process are service demanders and service providers, enterprises lack transaction history and adopt a conservative attitude toward transactions

With the development and promotion of the new generation of information technology, the development model of the manufacturing industry has undergone profound changes [1]. (2) e preferences and limited rationality of enterprises in the cloud manufacturing environment can be fully considered by introducing prospect theory, and a three-party trust evolution game model for cloud manufacturing service providers, service demanders, and platform supervisors can be constructed based on the service composition perspective, which improves the existing evolution game variables and parameters on the one hand, and extends the research on the other.
