Resource Discovery Algorithm Based on Reputation-Aware in Peer-to-Peer Networks
The dynamic and anonymity of P2P network have distinct contributions to the successful application of P2P. At the same time, they also induce some malicious nodes to provide untrustworthy and fake service. This paper introduces a robust and flexile reputation mechanism in unstructured P2P and presents the heuristic resource discovery algorithm based on reputation-aware to ensure that resource requestor can obtain reliable resource and service. This new resource discovery algorithm can effectively restrain the imposture and pseudo service of P2P network,improve the reliability and security and decrease network load.
