Abstract:
In the coming decades, we will live in a world surrounded by tens of billions of devices that will interoperate and collaborate in an effort to deliver personalized and autonomic services. Our reliance on these machine-to-machine systems to make decisions on our behalf has profound implications, and makes mechanisms for expressing and reasoning about trust essential. The Georgia Tech Research Institute recently started a strategic initiative on the Internet of Things focusing on trust. We are developing a trust framework for the machine-to-machine domain that classifies leadership functions into three dimensions. We are also developing a live, virtual, constructive platform for the design and validation of trust technologies for fully connected, ubiquitous systems. This work is in an exploratory stage, and our approach and future plans are described in the paper.
