Abstract

Grid computing has been aggressively expanded with the increasing demands for high performance computing, with the steady price decrease of the hardware, and the growth of related software support. Resource and security assurance are the core of the Grid computing systems. If the supporting resource management scheme and the security assurance cannot keep pace with the Grid’s evolvement, a bottleneck of Grid computing will be easily formed. Schemes based on trust and reputation evaluation are treated as an efficient way to address these problems. In this paper, we provide a systematic review on existing work of trust and reputation evaluation mechanisms in grid computing, and compare them according to the criteria proposed by us. Through review and comparison, we found a number of open problems in this research field, which directs the future research and investigation.
