They are now widely used in online e-commerce markets and communities in order to stimulate good behaviors as well as to restrain adverse behaviors. This paper analyzes the limitations of the conversational reputation models and proposes an incentive reputation model called the resilient reputation model (RRM) for the distributed reputation systems. The objective of this reputation model is not only to encourage the users to provide good services and, therefore, to maximize the probability of good transaction outcomes, but also to punish those adverse users who are trying to manipulate the application systems. The simulation results indicate that the proposed reputation model (RRM) could effectively resist against the common adverse behaviors, while protecting the profits of sincere users from being blemished by those adversaries.展开更多

To solve this problem, an improvement of greedy perimeter stateless routing(GPSR) protocol is presented. In the new protocol, trustworthiness is considered in the route selection process. The trustworthiness is measured by an objective trust model based on the subjective trust model Dy Trust. And the reputation value which reflects the trustworthiness of each node is calculated and broadcasted by the intersection nodes. Specially, besides resisting the packet-discarding behavior of selfish nodes, this protocol also includes a location detection process to resist the location-faking behavior of malicious nodes. As a result, the selfish nodes and the malicious nodes can be excluded from the network. In addition, compared with improved GPSR protocol, the presented one is able to resist one kind of reputation-faking attack and has better performance in simulation.展开更多
