This code was developed by Chris Hazard.

• Discount Factor as Trust Calculations
  • (Christopher J. Hazard and Munindar P. Singh) Intertemporal Discount Factors as a Measure of Trustworthiness in Electronic Commerce. IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering (TKDE).
  • Source code and spreadsheets: discount_factor_trust_sources.zip
  • Includes code for other model variations as well, such as a transaction model and a rudimentary robot scenario (partly implemented from one of Sandip Sen's papers).
  • Overall, the code is pretty well commented, but not well-documented.
  • The batch_code directory contains the Perl scripts used to run the simulation with many parameters.
