A social-network defence against whitewashing
نویسندگان
چکیده
We provide a defence against whitewashing for trust assessment mechanisms (TAM) by using an underlying social network in MAS and P2P. Since interaction requests are routed through the social network, routers can block requests from portions of the network known for whitewashing. Furthermore, by limiting feedback spread to the interaction routers, the trust assessment can be done without querying for feedback with a small loss in efficiency.

Designing Social Norm Based Incentive Schemes to Sustain Cooperation in a Large Community
Sustaining cooperation among self-interested agents is critical for the proliferation of emerging networked communities, such as the communities formed by social networking services. Providing incentives for cooperation in networked communities is particularly challenging because of their unique features: a large population of anonymous agents interacting infrequently, having asymmetric interes...
متن کاملAvoiding Whitewashing in Unstructured Peer-to-Peer Resource Sharing Network
In peer-to-peer file sharing network, it is hard to distinguish between a legitimate newcomer and a whitewasher. This makes whitewashing a big problem in peerto-peer networks. Although the problem of whitewashing can be solved using permanent identities, it may take away the right of anonymity for users. In this paper, we a have proposed a novel algorithm to avoid this problem when network uses...
متن کاملIntegrated Social and QoS Trust-Based Routing in Delay Tolerant Networks
We propose and analyze a class of integrated social and quality of service (QoS) trust-based routing protocols in mobile ad-hoc delay tolerant networks. The underlying idea is to incorporate trust evaluation in the routing protocol, considering not only QoS trust properties but also social trust properties to evaluate other nodes encountered. We prove that our protocol is resilient against bad-...

متن کاملSemiotics of Collective Memory of the Iran-Iraq War (Holy Defence): A Case Study of the Shared Images in Virtual Social Networks
This study aims to achieve a semiotic understanding of collective memory of the Iran-Iraq war. For this purpose, samples of images in virtual social networks shared in response to the news of discovery and return of the bodies of more than 175 divers have been analyzed. Visual signs in photographs, cartoons, graphic designs, prints, paintings and posters, in methods of historical pictures and f...
