Trust in ICT 1
5.2.6.3 Analysis
Trusted data collection and aggregation
Social relationship information: This trust property represents whether or not the trustee is socially
cooperative with the trustor. The social friendship relationship among device owners to characterize the
cooperativeness is used.
CoI information: This trust property represents whether or not the trustor and trustee are in the same social
CoI (e.g. co-location, co-work, or parental object relationship).
Ownership: This trust property represents whether or not the objects (smartphones) used by the device
owner.
5.2.7 Multi-hop device-to-device network path selection
5.2.7.1 Description
In the case of Figure 7, Alice wants to exchange information with another peer in multi-hop Device-to-Device D2D
environment. Alice's smartphone requests the social information of Node 1~3 and its CoI value. Then, it calculates
subjective trust values (Ta,n1, Ta,n2, Ta,n3) of other nodes in the view of Alice by using given information. If Ta,n1
is the highest value, Alice's smartphone judges Node 1 has enough authorization to send information and select
the path with Node 1. The social IoT trust also can be used in the path selection process for the reliable exchange
of information. To complement the objective trust, the subjective trust is required in addition.
