Referencing Tool for Reputation and Trust in Wireless Sensor Networks

Original · EN

Presently, there are not many literatures on the characterization of reputation and trust in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) which can be referenced by scientists, researchers and students. Although some research documents include information on reputation and trust, characterization of these features are not adequately covered. In this paper, reputation and trust are divided into various classes or categories and a method of referencing the information is provided. This method used results in providing researchers with a tool that makes it easier to reference these features on reputation and trust in a much easier way than if referencing has to be directed to several uncoordinated resources. Although the outcome of this work proves beneficial to research in the characterization of reputation and trust in WSNs, more work needs to be done in extending the benefits to other network systems.
