Analyzing Control Trust in Normative Multiagent Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
It has been argued that transaction trust is composed of party trust and control trust. In this paper we study control trust: trust in an institution that has set up a control mechanism. We present an account of control mechanisms using normative multiagent systems. Control mechanisms consist of constitutive norms which define evidential documents, and regulative norms which define violation conditions and sanctions. The account is illustrated by an analysis of the Letter of Credit trade procedure.

Transaction Trust in Normative Multiagent Systems
In this paper we apply Boella and van der Torre’s normative multiagent systems to analyze a model of transaction trust introduced by Tan and colleagues. We discuss the role of constitutive and regulative norms in party trust and control trust. Moreover, we use so called contract negotiation games to indicate when controls are needed. Though sometimes regulators focus exclusively on adding contr...
متن کاملTrust and Normative Control in Multi-agent Systems: An Empirical Study
Despite relevant insights from socio-economics, little research in multiagent systems has addressed the interconnections between trust and normative notions such as contracts and sanctions. Focusing our attention on scenarios of betrayal, in this paper we combine the use of trust and sanctions in a negotiation process. We describe a scenario of dyadic relationships between truster agents, which...
متن کاملNormative Systems in Computer Science - Ten Guidelines for Normative Multiagent Systems
In this paper we introduce and discuss ten guidelines for the use of normative systems in computer science. We adopt a multiagent systems perspective, because norms are used to coordinate, organize, guide, regulate or control interaction among distributed autonomous systems. The first six guidelines are derived from the computer science literature. From the so-called ‘normchange’ definition of ...
متن کاملNormative Multiagent Systems and Trust Dynamics
In this paper we use recursive modelling to formalize sanction-based obligations in a qualitative game theory. In particular, we formalize an agent who attributes mental attitudes such as goals and desires to the normative system which creates and enforces its obligations. The wishes (goals) of the normative system are the commands (obligations) of the agent. Since the agent is able to reason a...
