nMethods and algorithms to implement
four operations are designed.
They are based on:
nTruster’s direct experience with the
trustee in the specific context
nReputation about the trustee in the
specific context
nTruster’s direct experience with the
trustee in similar contexts
nThe most common belief about the
trustees encountered in the specific context
nTruster's priori trusting
belief
nFor competence trusting belief,
belief formation and two reputation aggregation methods are designed based
on sampling
theory.
nFor integrity trusting belief, the
BDES method is developed based on techniques in time series analysis
nRepresentations, methods and
algorithms designed are implemented in reputation server and trust
information management
component of TERM server.
