Abstract

Given the distributed and dynamic nature of SOC, and the autonomy of the agents involved, it is inevitable that failures will sometimes occur. Such failures might be due to simple errors or bugs, or may be a result of explicit malicious behaviour on behalf of an agent. In this chapter we introduce a number of future directions that will support the management of SOC by defining and constraining interactions (contracts), assessing and reducing the risk of failure (trust and reputation), and defining the responsibilities of the agents involved (accountability).
