Joint Tenancy, Taxwise and Otherwise

Access Control for Hierarchical Joint-Tenancy

Basic role based access control [RBAC] provides a mechanism for segregating access privileges based upon users' hierarchical roles within an organization. This model doesn't scale well when there is tight integration of multiple hierarchies. In a case where there is joint-tenancy and a requirement for different levels of disclosure based upon a user's hierarchy, or in our case, organization or ...

Mixed-Tenancy Systems - A hybrid Approach between Single and Multi-Tenancy

Multi-Tenancy is an architectural paradigm that is supposed to allow operators to exploit economies of scale. This is due to the fact that a single instance of MultiTenancy application serves multiple customers at the same time. Thus, operators may utilize resources and facilitate application operations more efficiently. On the other hand, however, a major drawback of Multi-Tenancy is the custo...

Relief: Pictorial and otherwise

Surfaces play an important role in visual perception. They are perceived as ‘(perceptual) reliefs’. that are surfaces in 2 + 1D perceptual space, that is the product space of the 2D visual field and the ID ‘depth dimension’. It is in many respects irrelevant whether the observer views a true 3D scene or a flat (2D) picture of a scene. In both cases, the percepts are reliefs in 2 + ID perceptual...

We humanists, when asked to speak on questions of science and technology, arc notorious for offering an embarrassed and ignorant respect toward those matters, a respect, however, which can all too quickly degenerate into insolent condescension. Face t...
