The SERS Framework: A Stakeholder-Oriented Approach to Designing and Evaluating Distributed Ledger Systems

This dataset supports the development and validation of a multi-criteria performance assessment framework for healthcare data management systems that integrate Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain (distributed ledger technology, DLT) technologies. The framework was constructed and weighted using a two-stage expert elicitation methodology combining the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) and the Analytic Network Process (ANP). Framework Structure: The assessment framework is organized around four primary performance criteria: Security, Efficiency, Resiliency, and Sustainability, each decomposed into four sub-criteria: - Security: Defended, Protected, Strengthened, Tested - Efficiency: Accessible and Affordable, Cost-effective, Optimized, Reliable - Resiliency: Recovery, Redundancy, Resourcefulness, Robustness - Sustainability: Focus on Value-Added Core Competencies, Reduce Resource Usage, Reduce Total Operation Costs, Reduce Wastes
