'Trust, reputation and user modeling', Girona, Spain
The current trend towards software applications (apps) using the cloud to store and process information that can be downloaded on social networks and mobile devices platforms brings new importance to the area of decentralised user modeling. Frameworks for dynamic and purpose based sharing of user mode fragments among apps needs to take into account the trust among these apps. The trust of one agent in another can be viewed as a simple user/agent model.
Researchers in the area of trust and reputation mechanisms have studied for many years techniques allowing autonomous agents and peers to share, aggregate and make decisions based on these simple user models. User modeling researchers can gain useful insights from this area.
The workshop will bring together researchers from the trust, reputation modeling and user modeling communities to examine new trends and the future directions that they may take.For further information, please visit: http://madmuc.usask.ca/WS-TRUM/(opens in new window)
