“…For another example, as is shown in Table 1, on the reputation aging, among the literatures that apply direct reputation and/or indirect reputation, only a few of them such as [21,24,25,33] use the reputation aging, while other literatures ignore it for no reason. Besides, by using the concept of binomial reputation, energy reputation [36,37], communication reputation [25,34,35,36,37], and data reputation like [30,34,41,42,59] and so on are introduced so as to save individual node energy and ensure the reliable communication and data transmission. Further, penalty and reward mechanisms [43], light computational complexity such as [21,24,26,27], and energy issues like [43,44,76] and so on are also considered in order to stimulate node cooperation, avoid running complex algorithms, and balance the energy consumed in the network.…”
