Computational models of trust have been proposed for use in ubiquitous computing
environments to decide whether to provide services to requesters which are either unfamiliar …

In this paper we describe ongoing work into the development of a trust-based architecture
aimed at increasing security and user confidence in pervasive computing systems. We begin …

Today, many trust models do exist which are based on bayesian systems, discrete values or
the probability theory. Some of them are generic while others are specifically designed for …

In ubiquitous computing environments, service servers play a central role of actively
providing information about a person to help people determine whether he is available for …

It is the ubiquity and mobility absolutely necessary for ubiquitous computing environments
that raise new challenges for pervasive service provision invisibly. Particularly, mobility of …

Without trust, pervasive devices cannot collaborate effectively, and without collaboration, the
pervasive computing vision cannot be made a reality. Distributed trust frameworks may …

It is well known that trust relationships between entities are uncertain in pervasive
computing. However, previous researchers did not attach enough importance to uncertainty …

To address the challenges posed by device capacity and capability, and also the nature of
ad-hoc network of pervasive computing, a resource discovery model is needed that can …

Pervasive computing offers new scenarios where users are surrounded by invisible and
proactive technology making smart spaces. Although the utility and power of solutions …

In recent years P2P computing systems gain popularity and impact due to the anonymity,
dynamism, scalability, and cost sharing. Due to autonomy of peers and open environment …
