Trust as a measure of uncertainty can be employed in many algorithms to optimise decisions based on uncertain information. This talk will introduce trust metrics for open multi-agent systems as well as trust-based scenarios that can both be used in complex decision procedures to mitigate risk and uncertainties. While trust metrics usually aggregate experiences into a single trust value, trust-based scenarios provide a means to predict different possible futures of a system and evaluate the probability and the impact of each of them. The use of trust values and scenarios in a decentralised self-organisation algorithm as well as in the solution of a centralised optimisation problem will illustrate the concepts.

Power management systems will be a running case study for both talks.
