Dr. Huang's research in ITI focuses on (1) formal theories of trust, including the formal semantics of trust, measurement of uncertainty in trust, logics of trust, calculus of trust, trust evolution, and trust mechanisms; and (2) applications of formal trust models in distributed computing and open networks, such as trust in identity management and trust in social networks.
