jectives, which were formed with the aid of domain
experts. The results suggested that the proposed inte-
grated MOEA-MLFCM successfully managed to cap-
ture the dynamics behind the decision for migrating to
microservices.
Future research will concentrate on the following:
First, more objectives and scenarios will be investi-
gated so as to form a more complete experimental pic-
ture in terms of factors and inter-dependencies. Sec-
ond, automation of the selection of the most appropri-
ate MOEA will be pursued for each multi-objective
scenario formed in each problem dealt.
