space based computing, XVSM (extensible virtual shared memory), access control models

Task Description

For the Java implementation of XVSM, MozartSpaces, an access control model has been developed that allows role-based access control via expressive policies. The policies themselves use the XVSM selection mechanism to specify which kind of entries a user with a specific role may access. Policies are stored within special containers that allow access for administrators to manage permissions. The goal of this work is to find a suitable use case for a collaborative application that demands fine-grained permissions for different kind of users and to implement a solution using XVSM and its access control model. Based on this use case, the expressiveness, scalability and usability of the XVSM access control model should be evaluated.
