Abstract:

Trust management systems TMS are crucial for managing trust in distributed environments The rise of decentralized systems and blockchain has sparked interest in credential based decentralized trust management systems DTMS This paper bridges the gap between theory and practice through a systematic review of credential based DTMS We analyze existing DTMS solutions through multiple dimensions including their architectural designs credential mechanisms and trust evaluation models Our survey provides a detailed taxonomy of credential based DTMS approaches and establishes comprehensive evaluation criteria for assessing DTMS implementations Through extensive analysis of current systems and implementations we identify critical challenges and promising research directions in the field Our examination offers valuable insights for researchers and practitioners working on DTMS particularly in areas such as access control reputation systems and blockchain based trust frameworks
