Abstract: The Trusted Desktop Grid (TDG) is a self-organised, agent-based organisation, where agents perform computational tasks for others to increase their performance. In order to establish a fair distribution and provide counter-measures against egoistic or malicious elements, technical trust is used. A fully self-organised approach can run into disturbed states such as a trust breakdown of the system that lead to unsatisfying system performance although the majority of participants is still behaving well. We previously introduced an additional system-wide control loop to detect and alleviate disturbed situations. Therefore, we describe an Observer/Controller loop at system level that monitors the system status and intervenes if necessary. This paper focuses on the controller part which instantiates norms as reaction to observed suspicious situations. We demonstrate the benefit of our approach within a Repast-based simulation of the TDG. Therein, the impact of disturbances on the system performance is decreased significantly and the time to recover is shortened. (More)
