Abstract

One of the most critical points for Communities of Practice is shared information credibility. Professionals only feel secure to reuse solutions presented and discussed within the scope of the community if a process of trusting is well established among its members at that moment. We propose the use of Reputation Systems to promote trust among participants and, consequently, stimulate participation through the recording of relevant information, such as ideas, opinions, solutions, and recommendations.
