Dynamic Trust Applied to Ad Hoc Network Resources

The Dynamic Trust-based Resources (DyTR) system applies a dynamic notion of trust to ad hoc network resources. DyTR continuously assesses the trustworthiness of entities over time based on system events and controls network resources according to current levels of trust. For dynamic trust assessment, DyTR utilizes a socio-cognitive model of trust, a formal model of the essential concepts and characteristics of trust in human society, and subjective logic for reasoning about trust-relevant system events. We describe a DyTR experiment in which trust assessment is coupled with resource delegation mechanisms in a simulated dynamic network environment.
