Two key challenges in this paradigm are discovering nearby that willing participate and establishing trusted connections. This paper presents middleware layer called CoTrust addresses these two issues. is comprised of collaboration protocol for negotiation between small group over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). It incorporates trust model enable collaborators assess the level based only on their observed interactions social network with peers. A prototype implementation Android smartphones demonstrates its feasibility, energy efficiency well good performance.
