Initial trust formation in Virtual Organisations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a conceptual framework that introduces key concepts capturing initial trust establishment in on-demand Virtual Organisations (VO). This framework can be used to develop trust formation protocols and policies. The framework can serve as a basis for implementing an automated system that facilitates the establishment of a VO, considerably reduces the effort for setting up a VO and consequently reduces the VO’s time to operation. A novel aspect of the initial trust establishment described in this paper is the consideration of the mutual trust effects of the participants’ behaviour during the trust negotiation process.
