Reputation-Based Trust Systems for P2P Applications: Design Issues and Comparison Framework
نویسندگان
چکیده
In Peer-to-Peer (P2P) computing area trust issues have gained focus as a result of the decentralized nature of P2P systems where autonomous peers interact with each other without relying on any central authority. There is, thus, the need of a trust system to ensure a level of robustness against malicious nodes. Various reputation-based trust models have been proposed for P2P systems which use similar concepts but focus on different aspects and address different set of design issues. As a result, there is a clear need to investigate the design aspects of reputation-based trust systems that could be deployed in P2P applications. In this paper we present the basic elements and design issues of such systems and compare representative approaches, aiming at supporting the design of reputation systems suitable for particular P2P applications.

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...

Peer-to-peer applications (P2P) are no longer limited to home users, and start being accepted in academic and corporate environments. While file sharing and instant messaging applications are the most traditional examples, they are no longer the only ones benefiting from the potential advantages of P2P networks. For example, network file storage, data transmission, distributed computing, and co...
متن کاملReputation-based Trust Management in Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Systems
Trust is required in file sharing peer-to-peer (P2P) systems to achieve better cooperation among peers and reduce malicious uploads. In reputation-based P2P systems, reputation is used to build trust among peers based on their past transactions and feedbacks from other peers. In these systems, reputable peers will usually be selected to upload requested files, decreasing significantly malicious...
