R2P: A Peer-to-Peer Transfer System Based on Role and Reputation

Abstract

This paper introduces R2P, a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) transfer system with role based and reputation based access control policies. With the combination of user authentication, organization authorization and scoring system, we solve the problem of resource piracy, user privacy and network jam, which exist in traditional P2P systems. The R2P system takes advantage of the X509 certificate to implement the role based access control policy. By assembling the artificial scoring and the automatic scoring components, the system evaluates the quantity and quality of the transfer resources, putting forward the reputation based access control policy. Upon the two policies and the adaptive P2P transfer model, the R2P system provides a secure, controllable and efficient resource transfer community.
