Zaher Faculty of Artificial Intelligence, Data Science department, Egyptian Russian University (ERU), Cairo, Egypt Nabil M. Eldakhly Faculty of Computers and Information, Sadat Academy for Management Sciences, Cairo, Egypt & French University in Cairo, Egypt The process of making an informed decision on which Internet of Things (IoT) platform to choose is an extremely important one in the modern world. The choice procedure is made more difficult as a result of (a) the vast number of IoT platforms that are offered on the market for IoT applications and (b) the wide diversity of functions and solutions that are provided by these platforms. In this article, the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodologies for selecting the specific Internet of Things platform are taken into consideration. The TOPSIS method is used in this paper to select the best IoT platform. TOPSIS method is a common MCDM method. TOPSIS method used the idea of the best and cost criteria to compute the distance from it. During the IoT platform choice procedures, relevant aspects, such as the stability, consistency, protection, and privacy of IoT platforms, are regarded to be the most significant ones for making decisions. 2022 40 50 1486 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 10.54216/JISIoT.070204 https://americaspg.com/journal/18/article/1486 https://americaspg.com/storage/71674396729.pdf
