| Summary: | This paper proposes a collaborative framework to support task offloading in connected vehicular environments. The approach relies on the dynamic formation of temporary teams of connected vehicles in a mobile edge computing scenario. A novel trust model is introduced, which integrates both quality of service and quality of results into a unified reliability score, and combines this score with distributed reputation to build a comprehensive trust metric. This trust metric is then exploited to guide a decentralized team formation algorithm, ensuring lightweight, interpretable, and scalable decision-making processes. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed framework improves task execution quality and fairness, especially for low-performing vehicles. These contributions highlight the novelty and strengths of our collaborative model, positioning it as a promising solution for enhancing cooperation in vehicular edge systems.
