Abstract :
Trust is a concept that has been used to support better decision-making when there is incomplete information. Trust requires evidence. There are multiple evidence sources. One or more evidence sources may be used in trust calculation. This paper presents a middleware that takes this into account, the algorithms used and experimental results.
