Trustworthy metrics models for internetware

  • Published:
Wuhan University Journal of Natural Sciences

Abstract

To measure the trustworthiness of Internetware, we need to understand the existing problems and design appropriate trustworthy metrics. The developing and running system of Internetware is analyzed in terms of process, keystone, methods and techniques. According to the main related factors of Internetware trustworthiness, two important models, namely trustworthy metrics hierarchy model of components (TMHMC) with computing steps and local-global trustworthy metrics model of platform (LGTMMP) with algorithm respectively, are employed to evaluate the internal and external trustworthiness of Internetware benefiting for the development of Internetware.
