DISRS - A Distributed Infrastructure for Secure Reputation Services
This project investigates necessary requirements of Reputation Services that are to work on top of a distributed infrastructure such as a Peer-to-Peer network. The aim of a Reputation Service is to engender trust between trading partners in potentially global e-marketplaces by collecting, aggregating, analysing, and interpreting ratings/feedback participants give each other at the end of a transaction. In order to assess the efficacy and efficiency of a solution meeting these requirements, the project so far has proposed metrics, which can not only be used to evaluate current systems, but also to guide the design of new systems. Infrastructure aspects and security considerations affecting application-level services, too, have been reviewed and suggestions to solve pertinent issues are proposed. Currently, our efforts concentrate on exploring and devising a Peer-to-Peer infrastructure that is capable of storing reputation data reliably since current Peer-to-Peer networks are either efficient in retrieval but unreliable in data storage or vice versa.
