More and more the engineering of complex agent-based systems calls for infrastructural support for coordination and security issues integrated with services for the description and management of system organisation. This trend is evident in the state of the art models adopted for the management of security and organisation of complex information systems: in this context Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) models are emerging as a reference architecture for integrating security issues – access control in particular – and (role-based) organisation management. In this paper we discuss how an RBAC-like model has been fruitfully exploited to extending an infrastructure for the coordination of agent-based systems — TuCSoN — with the support for organisation and security management, in particular as far access control is concerned.

Abstract
More and more the engineering of complex agent-based systems calls for infrastructural support for coordination and security issues integrated with services for the description and management of system organisation. This trend is evident in the state of the art models adopted for the management of security and organisation of complex information systems: in this context Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) models are emerging as a reference architecture for integrating security issues – access control in particular – and (role-based) organisation management. In this paper we discuss how an RBAC-like model has been fruitfully exploited to extending an infrastructure for the coordination of agent-based systems — TuCSoN — with the support for organisation and security management, in particular as far access control is concerned.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
