The paper addresses the issue of providing access control via delegation and constraint management across multiple security domains. Specifically, this paper proposes a novel Delegation Constraint Management model to manage and enforce delegation constraints across security domains. An algorithm to trace the authority of delegation constraints is introduced as well as an algorithm to form a del...

undoubtedly, legislation in any governmental system is based on its intellectual – philosophical foundations and special ideology. hence, in an islamic society, religious rules must be criteria of legislation in order to make those laws authentic and valid for the people. in this research, we have reviewed the historical past of the argument shortly, and have studied various possibilities for c...

The day-today operations of corporations and government agencies rely on inter-operating legacy, COTs, databases, clients, servers, etc., which are brought together into a distributed environment running middleware (e.g., CORBA, JINI, DCOM, etc.). Both access control and security assurance within these distributed applications is paramount. Of particular concern is the delegation of authority, ...

In ad-hoc networks and other highly distributed and decentralized environments, authorization certificates can be used to control access. Moreover, it is possible to delegate rights listed in the certificate to another users. Several such subsequent delegations build a chain of certificates. Chains of delegation certificates can improve the capability and manageability of systems. Distributed g...

We assert that decision rights in organizations are not contractible: the boss can always overturn a subordinate’s decision, so formal authority resides only at the top. Although decision rights cannot be formally delegated, they might be informally delegated through self-enforcing relational contracts. We examine the feasibility of informal authority in two informational environments. We show ...

This paper studies delegation of authority in a setting that combines the incentive view of delegation pioneered by Aghion and Tirole [1997], the informational theory of delegation emphasized by Dessein [2002], the learning possibility put forth by Aghion, Dewatripont, and Rey [2004] and the career concerns literature spawned by Holmström [1999]. I show that the principal may choose delegation ...

The relevance of the topic article is due to amendments Constitution Russian Federation that entered into force on July 4, 2020, and enshrined, in particular, principle unity system public authority (Part 3 Article 132). The provide for need change existing legislation adopt normative acts regulating more detail relations within unified between its levels - federal, regional, municipal, ...

Theories of delegation abound in political science, economics, and public administration, but there have been few empirical tests of these theories. One major roadblock is the lack of a comprehensive data set on acts of delegation. I take a necessary first step toward testing these theories by training a neural network to classify whether sections of bills are delegating public authority to the...

We introduce Delegation Logic (DL), a logic-based knowledge representation (i.e., language) that deals with authorization in large-scale, open, distributed systems. Of central importance in any system for deciding whether requests should be authorized in such a system are delegation of authority, negation of authority, and conflicts between authorities. DL’s approach to these issues and to the ...
