Repute Relationships for Reputation Management in Peer-to-Peer Communication
Trust between two communicating peers is increasingly catching the attention of the research community. Several trustmodels and trust management protocols have been proposed to assist the task of establishing trust between twocommunicating peers. All the proposed trust models make use of reputation mechanisms in order to establish trust betweenthe two communicating peers. However, the currently proposed trust models do not take into account the personal natureof trust. Additionally, they do not propose a mechanism that can handle incorrect recommendations by malicious peers. Inthis paper, we propose the use of repute relationships as a mechanism for countering the problems associated with thecurrent trust models for peer-to-peer systems. We present a formal definition of repute relationships and discuss how theuse of repute relationships can counter the problems existing within the current trust models.
