P2P Trust Model
[Abstract]
With the in-depth researches of large scale distributed systems, such as
Grid computing, Ubiquitous computing, P2P computing, Ad hoc networks,
etc, system is a dynamic and cooperative model made up of multi-software
serving. Under these dynamic and uncertainty environments, trust
mechanism based on CA (certificate authority) in a regular PKI (pubic
key infrastructure) can’t adapt to these requirements. Adaptive
reputation mechanisms have proven to be essential to enforcing
cooperative behavior in open environments and become to a new and hot
topic of security research for these new distributed applications. For
trust is subjective and fuzzy, there are big differences in trust
description, evaluation, reasoning and computing in recent trust
model. However, current trust models make a number of simplifying
assumptions that may not necessarily hold in real networks, such as
either irrational or completely rational behavior, instant propagation
of reputation information and homogeneity of interactions. We argue that
dropping those assumptions and allowing more degrees of freedom is
necessary in order to construct more realistic and richer reputation
models. We support our argument by citing reputation research done in
economics, evolutionary, psychology, biology, sociology and so on, and
consider models that take into account adaptive behavior changes,
co-evolution of behavior, bounded rationality, and so on. We focus on
constructing more realistic and less constrained reputation models that
can potentially lead to construction of more secure, responsive, and
cooperative networks.
