    abstract     = "This paper describes a comparative simulation study of some incremental trust and reputation algorithms for handling behavioural trust in large distributed systems.  Two types of reputation algorithm (based on discrete and Bayesian evaluation of ratings) and two ways of combining direct trust and reputation (discrete combination and combination based on fuzzy logic) are considered. The various combinations of these methods are evaluated from the point of view of their ability to respond to changes in behaviour and the ease with which suitable parameters for the algorithms can be found in the context of Grid computing systems."
