Trust is a fundamental consideration for the growth and stability of markets
and communities because trust guides decisions about interactions between
humans and organizations. New forms of markets and communities are created
online, but the very nature of this online environment makes trust
management challenging. It is for example common to request services from a
website we have never heard of before, and from which we might never request
a service again in the future. Combined with perceptions of minimal or
non-existent law enforcement, participants in online markets and communities
are often vulnerable to many forms of fraud and deception.
Reliable perceptions of trust lead to successful in tera c tions and quality
online markets, whereas misplaced trust and misplaced distrust are damaging
to online interactions and e-commerce. To improve the reliability of trust
perceptions and decision making, there is a need to better understand the
dynamics of trust in relation to the technological, behavioral, legal and
cultural aspects of e-commerce.
This special issue welcomes articles with research contributions related to
online trust in e-commerce, and to trust management in general. This is a
broad field that e.g. covers: theoretical and practical aspects of trust
management; antecedents to trust; technologies that impact trust; and the
use of policy, process and technology to manage trust. Specific topics of
interest include but are not limited to:
* Semantics, interpretations and ontologies of trust
* Metrics for trust and reputation
* Trust and reputation systems; protocols and computational models
* Robustness of tr ust a nd reputation systems
* Impacts of technology on trust
* Costs and trade-offs for establishing and sustaining trust
* Identity, credentials and access management
* Authorization models and policies
* Security and trust
* Risk management and trust
* Decision making and trust
* Case studies for online trust
