DETERMINISTIC TRUST MANAGEMENT IN PERVASIVE COMPUTING
Keywords:
Trust, trust management, deterministic trustAbstract
An effective trust management technique plays a vital role in evaluating relationships among devices in pervasive computing. In this paper, we propose a deterministic trust management scheme that aims at establishing trust relationships among devices using direct and indirect computation methods. Recommendations and trust updating mechanisms are used to increase the reliability of trust computations. We have carried out performance evaluations using simulation experiments. The results show that trust management with recommendation outperforms other schemes.
