Abstract:
P2P Networks are compound by nodes, servers and suppliers of services or resources. This kind of system allows us as part of it to supply and ask for resources in easy manner as well as for fake or corrupted content resources. Some mechanisms based on resources or based on nodes, named reputation systems, are developed to decreasing the pollution in P2P Network. This article presents a reputation system model based on nodes and also means to defeat the pollution issue by expelling malicious nodes, underprivileging selfish nodes and improving the honest ones. Simulations prove the effectiveness of the model in question.
