Abstract :
A trust and reputation mechanism is a mechanism using consumers´ feedbacks to identify good services from bad ones. Compared with other approaches, it has more advantages in solving the selection problem for web services. The paper proposes a typology to classify trust and reputation systems using the three criteria, centralized or decentralized, person or resource, global or personalized. Inspired by the criteria, some potential research directions for web service selection are pointed out.
