Deciphering trust, using a universally acceptable set of rules and mechanisms, is a challenging process because of trust’s varying interpretations. Researchers have defined trust concepts for many perspectives, with the result that trust definitions overlap or contradict each other [8]. There are numerous models of trust, although the classification of neither trust nor its models has been identified yet. Nevertheless, there is a subtle feature that differentiates a generic trust model from a trust management system; the former category focuses on modeling specific aspects of trust, such as authentication, reputation, and cooperation, whereas the second focuses on dynamically managing the lifespan of trust relationships. The majority of trust models and trust management systems have been studied and their limitations are well known, ranging from being too complex to being too simple. This paper addresses that issue. http://www.informatik.hu-berlin.de/rok/isas2005.html
