Abstract

The reputation of subject is a measure of a community’s opinion about that subject. A subject’s reputation plays a core role in communities within Collective Adaptive Systems (CAS) and can influence a community’s perception and their interactions with the subject. Their reputation can also affect computational activities within a system. While reputation is frequently used in CAS, there is a lack of agreed methods for its use, representation, and auditability. The aim of this chapter is to investigate key facets of an auditable reputation service for CAS, we contribute: Use cases for reputation and provenance in CAS, which are categorised into functional, auditable, privacy and security, and administrative; and a RESTful Reputation API, which allows users access to subject feedback and to access feedback reports and reputation measures.

previous chapter The Future of Social Is Personal: The Potential of the Personal Data Store

next chapter Surfacing Collective Intelligence with Implications for Interface Design in Massive Open Online Courses

In general a CAS may be constituted only by artificial agents, with no humans, and thus with no social elements.

Uniquely identifying participants does not require or imply the use of any personally identifiable information, which would connect the participant to the real person.

A comprehensive list of the systems identified can be found at: http://sociam.org/social-machines.
