In open multi-agent systems, agents may hide or lie about information regarding some events. In order to avoid such deception, a multi-agent system must be designed to test the confidence of agents. In this paper, we present a new approach to agent-based confidence modeling. This approach integrates two confidence requirements, namely, trust and certainty. We use fuzzy logic in representing the importance...
We present self-organisation processes within a decentralised P2P open Desktop Grid System. Every agent aimsto maximise the speedup of his jobs by joining the system. Therefore he needs to cooperate with other agents. We use a trust metric to assess the willingness of cooperation for other agents. To further optimise their speedup agents can form explicit Trusted Communities with trusted peers. Thus...
Trust management is important for agent cooperation and security in multi-agent system. Based on rough sets theory, a new trust evaluation method is proposed. The method divides attributes into necessary or unnecessary, calculates attribute weight, and then evaluates trust values by using a decision-making method. Finally, an example shows that it is efficient to evaluate trust by using the method.
