Abstract

This paper proposes a heritage-aware decision model for selecting communication architectures for transactional kiosk systems under infrastructure constraints. Using an AHP–TOPSIS framework and empirical evaluation, it compares protocols across LAN and hybrid KNX–IP environments, showing that hybrid solutions can ensure reliability with acceptable latency.
