Trust relationships are subjective and dynamic. One entity's trust over a subject is completely independent of some other entity's trust: trust is subjective. Trust also evolves dynamically over time. The growth of cloud computing over the last few years has created an environment where clients need to transact with cloud service providers even though the cloud service clients may or may not completely...
The growth of cloud computing over the last few years has created an ecosystem where it is necessary for the clients to transact with cloud service providers even though the cloud service clients may or may not completely trust the provider. There is a need for the provider to acknowledge this subjective trust assessment by each client and provide services based on the trust assessment individually...
Proxies can be used as gateways between remote resources and mobile devices to deal with the challenges resulted from disconnections and the limited resources of mobile devices. This paper describes a proxy-based infrastructure that provides proxy services to support mobile device applications. Proxy services can be thought of as a library of functions where the functions execute on a proxy and serve...
Trust is an important factor for successful online communication. Trust has been used as a criterion for service selection. Most trust and reputation studies assume a system where trust and reputations already exist. However, it is important to initialize trust rates for new services, which have no rating history, the so-called trust bootstrapping process. Trust bootstrapping assists the requestors...
Trust is an important factor in online communication. Trust is used as a criteria for service selection. The first step to build a trust solution is to define trust and trust principles. Most current trust-based service selection approaches do not define trust and they establish trust for services by ranking services or finding the services' compliance and reputation. In addition, most studies do...
Trust is as significant a factor for successful online interactions as it is in offline communities. Trust is an important factor to predict the behaviour of an entity and as a criterion for an entity selection. Most trust studies focused on trust establishment without identifying and considering the main trust definition components and trust principles. This paper explores trust in the offline and...
In a desktop grid model, the job (computational task) is submitted for execution in the resource only when the resource is idle. There is no guarantee that the job which has started to execute in a resource will complete its execution without any disruption from user activity (such as a keyboard stroke or mouse move) if the desktop machines are used for other purposes. This problem becomes more challenging...
