RT Journal Article T1 Managing Reputation in Collaborative Social Computing Applications A1 Moreno, Nathalie A1 Perez-Vereda, Alejandro A1 Vallecillo-Moreno, Antonio Jesús K1 Informática - Aplicaciones K1 Redes sociales AB Reputation is a fundamental concept for making decisions about service providers. However, managing reputationin peer-to-peer distributed applications is not easy due to the lack of a central server that can compute this property from useropinions. Moreover, users have to marry this information with their individual trust in the service provider, which may be basedon their past experiences, the opinions of their direct contacts, or both. This paper develops a reputation management systemembedded in the Digital Avatars framework for collaborative social computing applications, using subjective logic. We show howthe reputation of a given service provider can be calculated using the users’ opinions about it, and how this reputation can beexplicitly represented, managed and combined with the trust that individual service requesters may have in them, in order tomake better informed decisions PB AITO YR 2022 FD 2022-06 LK https://hdl.handle.net/10630/24740 UL https://hdl.handle.net/10630/24740 LA eng NO Nathalie Moreno, Alejandro Pérez-Vereda, Antonio Vallecillo: Managing Reputation in Collaborative Social Computing Applications.
