L. De Santis, M. Scannapieco, T. Catarci "A Trust Model for P2P Organizations based on Data Quality"

Keywords: trust, P2P, cooperative information systems, data quality

In this paper, we consider the problem of trusting P2P organizations that cooperate according to a tight interaction. Our idea is to introduce a model that allows to calculate the reputation of an organization with respect to a specific category of provided data. We consider examples taken from the Italian e-Government scenario, where public administrations interact as peers in order to fulfill service requests.
