Abstract(in English) In peer-to-peer (P2P) content sharing, users can share their contents by contributing their own resources to one another. However, when contributing, users experience psychological dissatisfaction, namely cost. Because of the cost, most users attempt to obtain content without any contributions. To motivate users to contribute their resources to the service, incentive-rewarding mechanisms have been proposed. EMOTIVER is an incentive mechanism that accommodates users' subjective cost, which was not dealt with in conventional mechanisms. Previously, we have clarified effective rewarding methods for different dominant costs. In this paper, we assume a more diversified cost condition and evaluate the robustness of EMOTIVER in the condition. From the comparison with the ideal result, we evaluate the optimality of our rewarding methods. Furthermore, we propose a reward reassignment method and show the improvement by the method through simulation.
