Communally governed transactions among collaborative and decentralized trading agents

摘要: This thesis proposed a framework in completing transactions among decentralized agents without the existence of trusted authority nor intermediate facilitator facilitating transactions. The consists transaction concept and logic, set algorithms to accomplish transactions, architecture that enable govern self-organize accounting, authentication, authorization for mutual benefit. system is based on creation elimination institutional facts as fundament develop logic. Set united trading community collectively accept arbitrary constructed assertion establishing presence accounts finances transacting agents. During those are altered through collaborative actions perform specified by algorithm. social-based accounting mechanism introduces enables individual level. By considering reputation seller well ratio between potential risk benefit every transaction, vote-based collective decision authorize or not transaction. feedback each made public altering corresponding seller. establishes social control block possible bad behavior, protect buyer from risky induce good behavior. result simulation this scheme shows how such works. It filters behaving preserves condition necessary sustain trust within thus collaboration. A chapter presents protocols developed algorithm fulfills best-practice considerations. successfully applies distributed cryptography devise authentication problem reduce communication cost eliminate scalability issue original Finally, an application exemplified: network superimposes existing P2P networks allowing Internet users trade their
