Exogenous Probabilistic Computation Tree Logic
We define a logic EpCTL for reasoning about the evolution of probabilistic systems. System states correspond to probability distributions over classical states and the system evo...

Rumours and reputation: evaluating multi-dimensional trust within a decentralised reputation system
In this paper we develop a novel probabilistic model of computational trust that explicitly deals with correlated multi-dimensional contracts. Our starting point is to consider an...
