Abstract

This paper briefly traces the evolution of information system architectures from mainframe-connected terminals to distributed multi-tier architectures. It presents the challenges facing developers of multitier information systems in providing effective consistent data policy enforcement, such as access control in these architectures. Finally, it introduces "Mobile Policy" (MoP) as a potential solution and presents a framework for using mobile policy in the business logic tier of multi-tier information systems.
