Survey on bias minimization and application performance maximization using trust management in mobile adhoc networks

The mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) contains various types of mobile nodes. The Trust of the node is an important issue for deciding the behavior of the node. The behavior of the node regards maliciousness of the node. Trust management for MANETs is an active research area. MANET is a collection of nodes that are self-configuring. There is the absence of any centralized control. In MANET, any node can enter and exit from the communication. This paper addresses the performance issue of trust management. Trust minimization and performance maximization are mainly focused. The paper helps to implement the protocol settings of maximum trust for minimized trust bias and maximize application performance. This paper helps to minimize the trust under the presence of malicious nodes. A mission oriented mobile group utilizing SQ Trust is used to identify the best trust formation protocol setting. The performance of the application is maximized on system reliability of mobile group.
