Abstract :
In digital business ecosystem architecture, it is rational for the trusting agent to analyse the possible risk in interacting with a probable trusted agent beforehand. Doing so would assist the trusting agent in its decision process. The possible risk in an interaction is a combination of the probability of failure and the possible consequences of failure of an interaction. In this paper, we propose an approach by which the trusting agent determines the probability of failure in interacting with a probable trusted agent according to the demand of its future interaction with it
