Abstract

![CDATA[We propose an application that allows users to request other users for helpwith every-day tasks. Users can pay each other for these tasks by issuing contracts in which the requester promises to return the favor in the future by performing some task for the other. Such contracts can be seen as an alternative currency, coined by the users themselves. Trust is an essential aspect of this system, as the issuer of a contract may fail to fulfill its commitments. Therefore, the application comes with a social network where users can leave comments about other users. Furthermore, our application includes a market place where users can exchange service contracts between each other, and a negotiation algorithm that can automatically trade these contracts on behalf of the user.]]
