Access Control Model for Groupware Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Groupware applications introduce new requirements in terms of access control that are not adequately handled by access control models developed for non collaborative applications. The central presence of humans in the context of collaborative applications adds additional constraints on the access model and data protection mechanism to be used. In this paper, we propose a hierarchy−based general data access model that we believe answers the needs of collaboration.

Why Groupware Succeeds: Discretion or Mandate?
Single-user applications are designed with a ‘discretionary use’ model. In contrast, for large systems, upper management support is considered crucial to adoption. Which applies to groupware? The relatively low cost of groupware reduces high-level visibility, but some argue that social dynamics will force mandated use—the large system approach. Interview studies of recently adopted on-line meet...
متن کاملReplicated Secure Shared Objects for Groupware Applications
This report describes the design and implementation of a secure shared replicated objects system, intended for use by groupware application programmers. The system enables such programmers to incorporate conceptually shared objects into their programs in order to provide the users with access to shared information. Access to each object is restricted to trusted parties by applying access contro...
متن کاملTailoring groupware for different scopes of validity
Tailorability is generally regarded as a key requirement for groupware applications. In this paper, we will focus on a specific class of tailoring activities: the definition of different system behaviour for specific scopes of validity. Since the state of the art in the CSCW literature does not yet offer any satisfactory solutions to support users in performing this class of tailoring activitie...
متن کاملCo : a Comprehensive Model of Groupware Functionality
We propose a conceptual model of groupware functionality. It distinguishes four basic functions a groupware application can provide to its users: support for conferences, for cooperation, for conversation and for coordination. We identify the main parameters of these basic functions. We demonstrate the application of the model by describing various categories of groupware applications in terms ...
متن کاملIntegrating groupware technology into a business process improvement framework
Much of the evaluative research on groupware in organisations so far has been preoccupied with the role of groupware as a new interaction media to replace or extend face-to-face communication in groups. It has focused on gains and losses from a group interaction point of view, typically disregarding the impact of other functions such as group access, and contribution to information concerning t...
