Abstract
Uncooperative behaviors of peers are great threats to current unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) systems. To solve this problem, we present a trust-based topology management protocol (TTMP), which aims to promote the fairness and service quality of P2P system by integrating a trust model into its topology management. To achieve this goal, TTMP divides a single connection between every pair of neighboring peers in current networks into two links: an In-Link and an Out-Link. A peer can only get services by its In-Links and provide services through its Out-Links. And TTMP manages these two types of Links based on two different trust metrics defined in the proposed trust model. Simulation results indicate that TTMP improves the performance of P2P system.
