Abstract

Despite many efforts in developing policy languages which work in different logical domains and with various reasoning engines, there has been limited attention paid to bringing policy definition, design, and integration into the realm of the mainstream software development process. There seems to be a lack of appropriate software development tooling that can allow for easy representation and integration of policies withother pieces of software at the design time. This paper presents a General Policy Modeling Language (GPML), following the rationale of Model Driven Engineering (MDE), as a means to design policies and integrate them to the software development process. We describe the logical foundation and the modeling rationale behind GPML and show how it is adjustable to the existing policy languages.
