Abstract
In Open Multiagent systems, individual components act in an autonomous and uncertain manner, thus making it difficult for the participating agents to interact with one another in a reliable environment. Trust models have been devised that can create level of certainty for the interacting agents. However trust requires reputation information that basically incorporates an agent's former behavior. Dissemination of this reputation information in highly dynamic environment is an issue. We have proposed a swarm intelligence based mechanism; whose self-organizing behavior provides an efficient way of reputation distribution.
