Abstract

Policy-based security is an effective approach to manage knowledge systems by handling all behaviors of a system thought a set of rules. This approach has such advantages as capacity to define general high-level targets, ease for configuration, and flexibility in development and maintenance. However, the resolution of conflicts is unavoidable requirement because of many elements of subjectivity as well as objectivity in administrative processes. To this end, several works have been done, and they gave concrete results. In this paper, we will propose a new approach to solve conflicts and to integrate rules in a policy. A new representation of rules is given, the distances between rules are defined as well as postulates are presented and analyzed. Algorithms for integrating policy also have been proposed and examined.
