English abstract:
Complex networks consisting of humans and software
services, such as Web-based social and collaborative environments,
typically require flexible and context-based interaction
models. Due to the dynamics in such systems, networks
are in a state of constant flux and change. Several fundamental
concepts, including discovery, interactions, task delegations and
executions are no longer based on static policies, but need
periodic readjustments. Sophisticated adaptation techniques
for improving collaborations are within the key research areas
in service-oriented systems. In this paper, we introduce an
adaptation approach that accounts for emerging trust relations
based on varying interaction behavior of network members.
We describe a science collaboration scenario that applies
adaptive information sharing techniques. In our model, trust
evolves from cooperative behavior of collaboration partners.
This behavioral trust provides an intuitive grounding for
adaptations and optimizations of member compositions and
sharing policies. As people prove their reliable and dependable
behavior in jointly performed activities, they become
increasingly considered as invaluable partners. We describe the
foundational concepts, including support for ad-hoc and selfmanaged
collaboration scenarios, and dynamic trust determination
supported by SOA concepts. Furthermore, we present a
reference architecture, and evaluate its applicability for largescale
collaboration networks.
