Abstract (Summary of the Work)

Reputation systems play a very crucial role in establishing trust on line, especially in e-commerce settings. In a reputation system user provides the feedback in the form of ratings and reviews to other users. Feedback for a user is accumulated, which becomes the reputation of the user. By using the reputation, a user knows about the reliability of another user. In this work, we present an efficient scheme for anonymous reputation system where every user is able to rate a product only once otherwise anyone can detect the user who deviates from this property. Our scheme is based on group signature scheme so a user stay anonymous while rating the product as long as he rates only once. In this work, we present complexity analysis for our scheme and compare our scheme with other schemes as well.
