Abstract

Context-aware systems are capable of perceiving the physical environment where they are deployed and adapt their behavior accordingly. Multiagent systems based on the BDI architecture can be used to process contextual information in the form of beliefs. Contextual information can be divided and structured in the form of information domains. Information and experience sharing enables a single agent to receive data on different information domains from another agent. In this scenario, establishing a trust model between agents can take into account the relative perceptions each agent has of the others, as well as different trust degrees for different information domains. The objective of this work is to adapt an epistemic model to be used by agents with their belief revision in order to establish a mechanism of domain-specific relative trust attribution. Such mechanism will allow for each agent to possess different trust degrees associated with other agents regarding different information domains.
