Grid computing and peer-to-peer computing are both hot topics at present. The convergence of the two systems is increasingly visible, and OGSA provides a framework for integrating grid and peer to peer. However, managing trust is a key issue for peer-to-peer grid. This paper proposes a novel trust-based reputation system for peer-to-peer grid, which is based on Bayesian theory. Theoretical analysis and simulations prove that the trust-based reputation system in peer-to-peer grid can improve the performance of cooperation among Gridpeers. 1 Introduction During the past several decades, the processing speed of a computer has exponentially increased over one million times. A personal computer today is more powerful than a supercomputer ten years ago. However, today’s computer, even the supercomputer, still cannot satisfy the increasing need of life sciences, physics etc. Therefore, the grid computing and peer-to-peer computing obtain development gradually. At present, grid and peer-to-peer are both hot topics respectively. However, the convergence of the two systems is increasingly visible: the two research communities started to acknowledge each other by forming multiple research groups that study the potential lessons that exchanged. P2P research focuses more and
