We present SADSR (Security-Aware Adaptive DSR), a secure routing protocol for mobile ad hoc networks. SADSR authenticates the routing protocol messages using digital signatures based on asymmetric cryptography. The basic idea behind SADSR is to have multiple routes to each destination and store a local trust value for each node in the network. A trust value is assigned to each path based on tru...

A fundamental consideration in designing successful trust scores in a peer-to-peer system is the self-interest of individual peers. We propose a strategyproof partition mechanism that provides incentives for peers to share files, is non-manipulable by selfish interests, and approximates trust scores based on EigenTrust[5]. The basic idea behind the partition mechanism is that the peers are part...

The traditional approach of providing network security has been to borrow tools from cryptography and authentication. With the Internet growing into highly decentralized and self-organizing networks, the open and anonymous nature of these networks makes them vulnerable to attacks from malicious and self-interested peers. So, we argue that the conventional view of security based on cryptography ...

Mutual trust and relationship between doctors and patients is an important factor of treatment plan. Changing trends in medical field does affect this relationship. This article reviews the basic code of conduct for every medical practitioner.

Trust is an important variable in economics, as several transactions are based on it; unfortunately it is difficult to measure. The recent economic literature on social capital shows a positive association between this concept and trust. As social capital is easier to measure than trust is, this paper analyzes the possibility of assessing trust measuring social capital using experimental econom...

This paper summarized the factors that influence consumers' trust in AI chatbots and divided it into chatbot-related (expertise, anthropomorphism, responsiveness, ease of use), company-related (perceived risk, brand trust, human support), consumer-related (privacy concerns). research attempts to explore mechanism human-AI formation answer question how promote chatbots. The results found anthrop...

The trust-region subproblem minimizes a general quadratic function over an ellipsoid and can be solved in polynomial time using a semidefinite-programming (SDP) relaxation. Intersecting the feasible set with a second ellipsoid results in the two-trust-region subproblem (TTRS). Even though TTRS can also be solved in polynomial-time, existing algorithms do not use SDP. In this paper, we investiga...
