Security is a crucial factor in multi-agent systems where agents dynamically leave and enter the system. In this paper, we continue our work on security for agent-based systems by proposing a new trust model allowing agents to decide about a target agent. The model combines two techniques: using reports provided by the trustworthy agents regarding to direct and indirect interaction histories, and...
A wireless ad-hoc network is a network which does not use any infrastructure such as access points or base station. Instead, the mobile nodes forward packets to each others, allowing communication among nodes outside wireless transmission range. In this dynamic network, each node is considered as a mobile router but in an energy-conserving manner. This fact makes node an active element in the network...
Social institutions and ecosystems are growing across the web and social trust networks formed within these systems create an extraordinary test-bed to study relation dependant notions such as trust, reputation and belief. In order to capture, model and represent the semantics of trust relationships forming the trust networks, main components of relationships are represented and described using ontologies...
Agent-based e-business opens up a computational direction, in which software agents behave on behalf of their owners. However, enabling agents to make decisions and exploiting information to other unknown agents have introduced some security challenges among them is trust relationship while agents are dealing with unknown environments and their residences. Despite existing of some sophisticated proposed...
