Trust in Software Component Marketplaces

چکیده
In electronic commerce trust building measures are one way to make a marketplace more attractive for suppliers and potential customers. Often trust on marketplaces is built up through external trusted third parties (TTPs). TTPs are organizations that deal with various trust-related problems and are themselves trusted by the customers. This paper describes the different trust problems that arose when designing a marketplace for (very specific) software components in the chemical engineering domain. To overcome these problems, different types of trust-building features will be included in the marketplace, each requiring different TTPs.
