The authors explain the concepts of trust, and describe a principled, general theory of trust grounded on cognitive, cultural, institutional, technical, and normative solutions. This provides a strong base for the author’s discussion of role of trust in agent-based systems supporting human-computer interaction and distributed and virtual organizations or markets (multi-agent systems).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides an accessible introduction to trust, and its importance and applications in agent-based systems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProposes a principled, general theory of trust grounding on cognitive, cultural, institutional, technical, and normative solutions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers a clear, intuitive approach, and systematic integration of relevant issues\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplains the dynamics of trust, and the relationship between trust and security\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers operational definitions and models directly applicable both in technical and experimental domains\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes a critical examination of trust models in economics, philosophy, psychology, sociology, and AI\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book will be a valuable reference for researchers and advanced students focused on information and communication technologies (computer science, artificial intelligence, organizational sciences, and knowledge management etc.), as well as Web-site and robotics designers, and for scholars working on human, social, and cultural aspects of technology.
