“…The SLA negotiation process in the cloud for user approval levels development and other pricing approaches to minimize the cost factor for SaaS providers did not discuss in this study. Huang (2017) analyzed the hitherto implicit intellectual structure of the cloud computing using the methods of patent clustering and co-word clustering. To improve the quality of patent clustering, the Taguchi method used by the E-I index as the quality specifications.…”

Purpose Cloud computing is qualified to present proper limitless storage and computation resources to users as services throughout the internet. Software as a service (SaaS) layer is the key paradigm perspective in the software layer of the cloud computing. SaaS is connected by business applications to access consumers on existing public, private and hybrid cloud models. This purpose of this paper is to present a discussion and analysis on the SaaS layer based on business applications in the cloud environment in form of a classical taxonomy to recognize the existing techniques, challenges and efforts. Design/methodology/approach Existing techniques, challenges and efforts are classified into four categories: platform-dependent, application-dependent, data-dependent and security-dependent mechanisms. The SaaS layer mechanisms are compared with each other according to the important factors such as the structural properties, quality of service metrics, applied algorithms and measurement tools. Findings The benefits and weaknesses of each research study are analyzed. In the comparison results, the authors observed that the application-based method, the non-heuristic algorithms, the business process method have the highest percentage of the usage in this literature. Originality/value The SaaS layer mechanisms based on business applications have some main features such as high accessibility, compatibility, reusability and collaboration to provide activated application and operation services for user with help of Web browsers. A comprehensive analysis was presented as originality on the SaaS layer mechanisms based on business applications for high level of the cloud environment that 46 peer-reviewed studies were considered.

“…Considering the problems regarding traditional co-word analysis, which relies on the measurement of association strength, this study employs the co-word analysis method proposed by Huang (2017). The co-word network includes three parts: the internal link network, the external link network, and the extensional link network.…”

“…However, IPC H04 and/or G06 are vast classes whose meaning is open to interpretation; thus, using the IPC classes as an analytical basis are not encouraged. This study uses an ontology-based compound retrieval policy proposed by Huang (2017) to collect patents in line with the characteristics of the cloud computing industry.…”

Abstract-Cloud computing is generally considered to be beneficial for the public and private IT organizations because it can substantially reduce the cost of IT systems. Cloud computing technology is not only very important for the development of businesses but also has significant impact on the overall competitiveness of a country. However, there are few patent analyses in this area and many gaps are still open. This research retrieves the mainstream PaaS patents by taking the citing and cited patents into account. Next, we propose co-word analysis, incorporating with the visual methods of social network analysis (SNA), to investigate the R&D themes of PaaS cloud patents. The proposed method for exploring the intellectual structure, as well as the analyzed results for unveiling the development status of cloud computing, can provide valuable references for cloudrelated companies to make their R&D management strategy.
