SWAD-Europe Trust Activity

The SWAD-Europe workplan describes the structure of the overall project. This page provides the current state of the trust activity (WP11).

The initial work in this area has been a survey of relevant standards and the investigation of scenarios by Graham Klyne of NinebyNine which is summarised elsewhere

Subsequent work has considered trust implications of service oriented architectures, and also trust in social networks.
