A trust-based situation awareness system for military applications of the internet of things

摘要

Integration of heterogeneous objects diverse in technology, environmental constraints and level of trust is a challenging issue. The paper presents a novel trust-based cognitive mechanism making the objects of IoT infrastructure capable to build their situational awareness, and use this knowledge for appropriate reaction to detected threats. We demonstrate, by simulation, the efficiency of the proposed solution, and its robustness to attacks on the reputation system.
