Building an Ontology Based Access Control Model for Multi-Agent System (okładka  miękka)

In this work, an Ontology-based Access Control called OJADEAC model is proposed to be applied in JADE Multi-Agent platform by combining Semantic Web technologies with context-aware policy mechanism. The proposed model extends JADE-S security framework by substituting its authorization service and providing a secure Multi-Agent system. OJADEAC model relies on a proposed JMASO ontology that models the JADE platform knowledge with any information needed to support access decisions. OJADEAC is a policy model where an access is taken according to access control policy rules. Policy rules are specified at two levels: platform and application. This work should be useful to students and users who may be concerned about applying semantic web technologies to security mechanism. Also students can benefit from the deeply analysis of JADE-S system behaviors.
