The Role of Hypertext in CASE Environments
نویسنده
چکیده
Software development involves a variety of interrelated software documents produced in the diierent phases of the software development process. A CASE environment should maintain these documents and their relationships, and provide support for their consistency. Hyper-text provides a general way to store and present interrelated information. It is natural to expect that hypertext can play a signiicant role in realis-ing the support required by the interrelated software documents in CASE environments. In this paper, we present a critical analysis of hypertext capabilities in fulllling the managerial and technical support requirements of software documents. We identify both the requirements which can be met by readily available hypertext capabilities and those which require enhanced hypertext features. Abstract.

A semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...
متن کاملA context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
