Abstract

The research of trust management has become a key field as a valid solution to ensure the security and application in p2p networks. The accurate measure of trust is a hard and very important problem in trust management. People’s final opinion has been formed based on his own initial opinion with influence of other’s opinion in society. In this paper, a new method in computing trust value based on influence is proposed. Learning from the characteristic of people’s opinion forming in society, an opinion to a peer (trust or distrust) is also formed on the base of direct trust value with influence of indirect trust value recommended by other peers. By introducing insisting degree and influence function, the influence is quantified. The trust value of a peer is more accurately computed by the method based on influence.
