Trust Engineering

Abstract

We posit that Ostrom s common pool governance and Martin van Creveld s Command and control can be unified and automated as a Distributed Autonomous Organization (DAO). This should increase a community of action s trust in its mission, resource pool, and decisions made by community members. The DAO will be deployed in a challenging environment, a community of action working in Chad. We note that aspects of NGO operations in Chad resemble military field operations (intermittent communications, the need for secrecy, the need to hide communications meta-data, etc.) without having to insert our research into actual conflict situations. We see this as being consistent with this project being a 6.1 research initiative. Actual military applications will require additional applied research.
