Abstract
A Grid is a virtual resource framework[1,2] which provides the ability to access, utilize, and manage a variety of heterogeneous resources among multiple domains. However, selecting appropriate resources within such a distributed Grid environment is a complex and difficult task. In recent years, trust models have been proposed[4,5], but most of them do not deal with the temporal issue of trust. In this paper, we aim to extend the trust model with a novel data structure called Time-Frame which can store temporal information regard-ing to the trust involved. With the Time-Frame structure, we can evaluate the resources accurately by means of the available temporal information.
