Yefeng Ruan, Arjan Durresi, Lina Alfantoukh · 2016
Internet of Things (IoT) can connect a large numberof things (or agents) through communication networks for varioustypes of applications. Like in many other applications, it isvery important for all the agents in IoT systems to collaboratewith each other following predefined protocols. In this paper, we proposed a general trust management framework aiming tohelp agents to evaluate their partners' trustworthiness. We run asimulation for a food nutrition analysis example. It shows that byusing trust, the analysis error can be reduced. Also, we illustratetwo possible types of attacks, and show how to use different trustfactors or environments together to alleviate the damage.
