چکیده

Reputation systems, which allow peers to collaborate on estimating the trustworthiness of other peers, are considered as one of the promising directions against malicious behaviors in large scale Peer-to-Peer networks. However, a weakly designed reputation system is vulnerable to attacks such as unfair rating and collusion. This paper presents GroupRep a novel group-based reputation system for Peer-to-Peer networks. In the GroupRep model, peers are allowed to form social groups, in which member peers will collaborate against attacks on the reputation system. For management of the group, a set of robust and light-weighted protocols are proposed based on distributed voting. Experiments show that the GroupRep model is effective and inexpensive, and the system is robust enough even under the situation that the majority of the peers are malicious and they cooperate deliberately to subvert the system.

GGRA: a grouped gossip-based reputation aggregation algorithm

An important issue in P2P networks is the existence of malicious nodes that decreases the performance of such networks. Reputation system in which nodes are ranked based on their behavior, is one of the proposed solutions to detect and isolate malicious (low ranked) nodes. Gossip Trust is an interesting previously proposed algorithm for reputation aggregation in P2P networks based on t...

A Genetic Programming-based trust model for P2P Networks

Abstract— Peer-to-Peer ( P2P ) systems have been the center of attention in recent years due to their advantage . Since each node in such networks can act both as a service provider and as a client , they are subject to different attacks . Therefore it is vital to manage confidence for these vulnerable environments in order to eliminate unsafe peers . This paper investigates the use of genetic ...

A Group Management Protocol for P2P Networks

Ad hoc-like friend-to-friend (F2F) networks are an important part of the third generation peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. F2F networks offer their users more anonymity and privacy, but make user reputation tracking very hard. In this paper, I present a group management based protocol for F2F networks and evaluate its performance in solving balance between privacy and reputation in these networks.

A Novel Caching Strategy in Video-on-Demand (VoD) Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Networks Based on Complex Network Theory

The popularity of video-on-demand (VoD) streaming has grown dramatically over the World Wide Web. Most users in VoD P2P networks have to wait a long time in order to access their requesting videos. Therefore, reducing waiting time to access videos is the main challenge for VoD P2P networks. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for caching video based on peers' priority and video's popula...

DisTriB: Distributed Trust Management Model Based on Gossip Learning and Bayesian Networks in Collaborative Computing Systems

The interactions among peers in Peer-to-Peer systems as a distributed collaborative system are based on asynchronous and unreliable communications. Trust is an essential and facilitating component in these interactions specially in such uncertain environments. Various attacks are possible due to large-scale nature and openness of these systems that affects the trust. Peers has not enough inform...
