This paper argues that Napoleon, a flexible, role-based access control (RBAC) modeling environment, is also a practical solution for enforcing business process control, or workflow, policies. Napoleon provides two important benefits for workflow: simplified policy management and support for heterogeneous, distributed systems. We discuss our strategy for modeling workflow in Napoleon, and we pre...

simple necessarily represents that Napoleon used a stand up desk (and its being “true” necessitates that Napoleon used a stand up desk), and so on.

? ho is remembered chiefly for the disasters of the Franco-German war and 0r his capture by the Germans at Sedan.

An n-gon is called Napoleon if the centers of the regular ngons erected outwardly on its sides are vertices of a regular n-gon. In this note we obtain a new geometric characterization of Napoleon ngons and give a new proof of the well-known theorem of Barlotti Greber ([1], [3]) that an n-gon is Napoleon if and only if it is affine regular. Moreover, we generalize this theorem by obtaining an an...

Few painters have succeeded in representing a dramatic event on a large scale as successfully as Antoine Jean Gros in his painting " Bonaparte Visiting the Plague-stricken at Jaffa." This immense canvas (17 ft. 5 in. by 23 ft. 7 in.; 5.3 by 7.2 mi.) hangs in the Salle Daru of the Louvre, Paris. The event depicted took place during the Syrian Campaign in March 1799. Worried by the fear and loss ...

He later became chief surgeon to the Army in Italy and Napoleon gave him carte blanche in the organization of the medical division. He was with Napoleon at all his battles, and on his return to Paris from Egypt in 1801 honours were showered upon him. During the pauses between campaigns he gave courses of ...

This paper involves two intertwined themes. One is the relation of Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) with leading French scientists of his time. The second is the beginning of two concepts important in chemistry: (a) reaction reversibility and chemical equilibrium, and (b) the role of relative masses of reactants and products in determining the position of equilibrium. These ideas are now taken as...
