TIME 2008
International Workshop on Trust in Mobile Environments
June 17th 2008, Trondheim, Norway
Co-located with IFIPTM 08 - Joint iTrust and PST Conference
Conference on Privacy, Trust Management and Security
http://time08.cs.ucl.ac.uk/index.html
Goals and Objectives
of the TIME Workshop
Trust is a vital issue in mobile computing if applications are to
support
interactions which will carry data of any significance. Consider, for
instance, exploring a market place: which vendors should one prefer, and
why; how can a user establish the provenance of an item, etc. Various
trust
models have been developed in recent years to enable the construction of
trust-aware applications. However, it is still not clear how robust
these
models are, and against what types of attacks; how accurate they are in
capturing human characteristics and dynamics of trust; how suitable they
are
to the mobile setting. Mobility brings in orthogonal complexities to the
problem of trust management: for example, the transient relationships
with
the environment and other users calls for an investigation of the
dependency
between trust and context; the lack of a clear shared control authority
makes it difficult to verify identities, and to follow-up problems
later;
the limited network capability and ad-hoc connectivity require the
investigation of novel protocols for content sharing and dissemination,
and
so on.
This workshop seeks to explore the issue of trust modelling and
management
in mobile computing, integrating issues from computational theory to
sociological implications, from systems implementation to usability.
This
workshop aims to:
* Enable the sharing of current understandings and new findings
* Facilitate the exchange of ideas and concepts arising from
different
approaches, thus informing each other and identifying new possibilities
and
problems
* Provide a forum for discussing alternative approaches and for
researchers to form new contacts
