Reputation system for User Generated wireless podcasting

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

The user-generated podcasting service over mobile opportunistic networks can facilitate the user generated content dissemination while humans are on the move. However, in such a distributed and dynamic network environment, the design of efficient content f ...

Revocation Games in Ephemeral Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Mark Felegyhazi, Maxime Raya

A frequently proposed solution to node misbehavior in mobile ad hoc networks is to use reputation systems. But in ephemeral networks - a new breed of mobile networks where contact times between nodes are short and neighbors change frequently - reputations ...

Effective Usage of Computational Trust Models in Rational Environments

Karl Aberer

Reputation-based trust models based on statistical learning have been intensively studied for large-scale distributed systems whereas practical application of game-theoretic approaches using sanctioning are still very little understood in such settings. Th ...

Secure incentives to cooperate for wireless networks

The operating principle of certain wireless networks makes essential the cooperation between the mobile nodes. However, if each node is an autonomous selfish entity, cooperation is not guaranteed and therefore we need to use incentive techniques. In this t ...

Authentication-free fault-tolerant peer-to-peer service provisioning

Karl Aberer, Wojciech Galuba, Zoran Despotovic

The correct functioning of a peer-to-peer network relies on cooperative behavior of peers as service providers. Current approaches to detection and deterrence of non-cooperative behavior, such as reputation systems, rely on (1) global sharing of observatio ...

The Complex Facets of Reputation and Trust

Karl Aberer, Wojciech Galuba, Zoran Despotovic

Trust and reputation systems have proven to be essential to enforcing cooperative behavior in peer-to-peer networks. We briefly describe the current approaches to building reputation systems: social networks formation, probabilistic estimation and game the ...

Analysis of a Reputation System for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks with Liars

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jochen Mundinger

The application of decentralized reputation systems is a promising approach to ensure cooperation and fairness, as well as to address random failures and malicious attacks in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks. However, they are potentially vulnerable to liars. With o ...

Self-Policing Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks by Reputation

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Sonja Buchegger

Node misbehavior due to selfish or malicious reasons or faulty nodes can significantly degrade the performance of mobile ad-hoc networks. To cope with misbehavior in such self-organized networks, nodes need to be able to automatically adapt their strategy ...

Analysis of a Reputation System for Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks with Liars

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jochen Mundinger

Using decentralized reputation systems is a promising approach to ensuring cooperation and fairness in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks. However, they are vulnerable to liars and robustness has not been analyzed in detail. With our work, we provide a first step to t ...

Denial-of-service resilience in peer-to-peer file sharing systems

Willy Zwaenepoel, Dan Mihai Dumitriu

Peer-to-peer (p2p) file sharing systems are characterized by highly replicated content distributed among nodes with enormous aggregate resources for storage and communication. These properties alone are not sufficient, however, to render p2p networks immun ...
