چکیده

Trust in distributed systems is an inherently difficult problem, as nodes need to decide which other nodes to trust without a central, verifiably trusted authority. This paper evaluates the notion of a distributed sub-network of trust aggregators based on the NICE trust cookie and trust chain system. The aggregators simply keep the trust cookies, which prove delivery of a resource during a transaction. The aggregators can therefore provide an answer about a node’s trustworthiness in O(1) hops. This structure also provides a substrate for a system to track negative trust information as well as to provide global trust values for when direct trust chains do

Robust Trust Mechanisms for Monitoring Aggregator Nodes in Sensor Networks

Sensor nodes are often deployed in large numbers to monitor extended sensor fields. In such scenarios data aggregation plays a crucial role on summarizing data forwarded to base stations in sensor networks. As sensor networks are commonly deployed in open and unattended areas, they are vulnerable to physical tampering as well as remote attacks. Existing security techniques focus primarily on me...

Optimal Decision Making Framework of an Electric Vehicle Aggregator in Future and Pool markets

Electric vehicle (EV) aggregator, as an agent between the electricity market and EV owners, participates in the future and pool market to supply EVs’ requirement. Because of the uncertain nature of pool prices and EVs’ behaviour, this paper proposed a two-stage scenario-based model to obtain optimal decision making of an EV aggregator. To deal with mentioned uncertainties, the aggregator’s risk...
