Most of the existing approaches to trust management focus on the issues of assessing the trustworthiness of other entities and of establishing trust between entities. This is particularly relevant for dynamic, open and distributed systems, where the identity and intentions of other entities may be uncertain. These approaches offer methods to manage trust, and thereby to manage risk and security...

This work proposes a new trust management system (TMS) for the Internet of Things (IoT). The wide majority of these systems are today bound to the assessment of trustworthiness with respect to a single function. As such, they cannot use past experiences related to other functions. Even those that support multiple functions hide this heterogeneity by regrouping all past experiences into a single...

Prior research has indicated that employee turnover is detrimental to both individuals and organisations. Because a turnover intention in the workplace is detrimental, several factors have been suggested to better understand the reasons why employees may decide to leave their organisations. Some of the organizational-related factors that have been considered by previous research include perceiv...

The thesis addresses the domain of inter-enterprise collaborations, which are particularly useful for small and medium-sized enterprises for attaining competitive edge in fields dominated by large enterprises.

Our paper addresses this conference stream by considering how trust is developed and discussed between nurses and their line managers, and how this might influence leadership and management development. It does so through an exploration of the antecedents, attributes and consequences of trust. Research discusses the centrality of trust in nurse-manager relationships, and suggests that high leve...

As wireless network applications evolve, they require interaction between many entities (protocols, middleware etc), and an increasing requirement for the design of secure applications among the entities is trust management. Consequently, many new attacks against networks are aimed at the trust management. In this paper, we develop a new trust management framework (TMF) for wireless networks. T...
