Distributed applications that lack a central, trustworthy
authority for control and validation are properly termed
decentralized. Multiple, independent agencies, or "partners",
cooperate to achieve their separate goals. Issues of
trust are paramount for designers of such partners. While
the research literature has produced a variety of trust technology
building blocks, few have attempted to articulate
how these various technologies can regularly be composed
to meet trust goals. This paper presents a particular, event-based,
architectural style, PACE, that shows where and how
to incorporate various types of trust-related technologies
within a partner, positions the technologies with respect to
the rest of the application, allows variation in the underlying
network model, and works in a dynamic setting. Initial
experiments with variants of two sample decentralized
applications developed in the PACE style reveal the virtues
of dealing with all aspects of application structure and trust
in a comprehensive fashion.
