    <pub:abstract><![CDATA[Current research on data management in mobile ad-hoc networks focuses
on discovering sources and acquiring information. In this mode of
operation, mobile devices assume answers to be correct and do not
verify the veracity of the information or their providers. This
assumption is suitable for most client-server environments; however,
peer-to-peer environments lack the intrinsic stability of ``anchored''
sources. In mobile peer-to-peer environments, some sources may provide
faulty information, which can lead to incorrect
conclusions. Consequently, devices need a mechanism to evaluate the
integrity of their peers and the accuracy of peer provided
information. To address this problem we propose a query processing
model that relies on distributed trust and belief. In our model, each
device maintains and shares beliefs regarding the degree of trust it
has for its peers -- where trust is determined by experience and
reputation. Additionally, each device associates a value indicating
its belief in the accuracy of the information the device holds. Each
device, when querying its peers, uses the trust it has placed in the
peers, in conjunction with the peers' accuracy belief of their
information, to determine the reliability of the responses to its
query. We have implemented our model in GloMoSim and provide
experimental results for different combinations of trust and accuracy
algorithms.]]></pub:abstract>
