Although traditional databases and data warehouses have been exploited widely to manage persistent data, a large number of applications from sensor network need functional support...
This paper presents a policy-based framework for managing access control in distributed heterogeneous systems. This framework is based on the PDP/PEP approach. The PDP (Policy Deci...
We present the Network File System with Cluster Delegation (NFS-CD), an enhancement to the NFSv4 that reduces server load and increases the scalability of distributed file systems ...
Run-time conflicts can affect even the most rigorously tested software systems. A reliance on execution-based testing makes it prohibitively costly to test every possible interac...
