Kedar Nath Singh, Suresh Kumar, Manjeet Singh . Dynamic Trust for Secure E-Shopping in Semantic Web. International Journal of Computer Applications. 24, 2 ( June 2011), 8-12. DOI=10.5120/2925-3867
In the present scenario, electronic shopping has become a trend which is easy and time-saving. Such convenient services on web and the products provided by sellers are trustworthy or not are very important for buyers to know. Seller can even increase their product rating by acting as a buyer or can decrease the rating of his competitor’s product. Also a buyer can also give the wrong feedback. So it is difficult to trust such e- products and user’s feedback. In this paper, a dynamic trustworthy framework rectifies lack of static trust in semantic web scenario on the basis of the trust level of users (Buyers and Sellers). To achieve this, three agents are employed (namely Process Agent (PA), Detection Agent (DA) and Trust Calculation Agent (TCA)) for calculating dynamic trust in Semantic Web. These intelligent agents collectively restrict any imposter from increasing the fake trust value and hence furnish a genuine trust value dynamically.
