A resolution scheme for handling conflicts in high level authorization specification by using logic program with ordered disjunction （LPOD） is proposed. The scheme is useful for solving conflicts resulted from combining positive and negative authorization, complexity of authorization management, and less clarity of the specification. It can well specify kinds of conflicts （such as exceptional conflicts, potential conflicts）, and is based on literals and dependent contexts. Thus it is expressive and available. It is shown that authorizations based on rules LPOD is very important both in theory and practice.展开更多

文摘Based on logic programs, authorization conflicts and resolution strategies are analyzed through the explanation of some examples on the health care sector. A resolution scheme for handling conflicts in high level authorization specification by using logic program with ordered disjunction （LPOD） is proposed. The scheme is useful for solving conflicts resulted from combining positive and negative authorization, complexity of authorization management, and less clarity of the specification. It can well specify kinds of conflicts （such as exceptional conflicts, potential conflicts）, and is based on literals and dependent contexts. Thus it is expressive and available. It is shown that authorizations based on rules LPOD is very important both in theory and practice.
