The Study of Access Control for Service-Oriented Computing in Internet of Things

By Guoping Zhang Jing Liu

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijwmt.2012.03.10, Pub. Date: 15 Jun. 2012

In Internet of Things, computing and processing of information is the core supporting. In this paper, we introduce “Service-Oriented Computing” to solve the computing and processing of information in IoT. However, a key challenge in service-oriented environment is the design of effective access control schemas.We put forward a model of Workflow -oriented Attributed Based Access Control (WABAC), and an access control framework based on WABAC model. WABAC model grants and adapts permissions to subjects according to subject atttribute, resource attribute, environment attribute and current task, meeting access control request of SOC. Using the approach presented can effectively enhance the access control security for SOC applications, and prevent the abuse of subject permissions.

Compose Real-world Service With Context

By Guoping Zhang Jiazheng Tian

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijwmt.2011.03.07, Pub. Date: 15 Jun. 2011

Advances in the areas of smart embedded devices, computing and networking are leading to the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) composed of millions of heterogeneous devices. These devices will be interconnected, providing and consuming information available on the network and cooperate. As the improvement of the performance of industrial processes, the service-oriented approach can be adopted for smart embedded devices. Each device can offer its functionality as services. In such infrastructures, traditional web service compositions can not adapt to the dynamic environment for the Internet of Things. In this paper, we propose an approach to compose services with context. It can not only adapt to dynamic environment for the Internet of Things, but also satisfy the user’s preferences. We first build context ontology to describe the scenario for user. According to context information, the service composition process is presented.

A Model of Workflow-oriented Attributed Based Access Control

By Guoping Zhang Jing Liu

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijcnis.2011.01.07, Pub. Date: 8 Feb. 2011

The emergence of “Internet of Things” breaks previous traditional thinking, which integrates physical infrastructure and network infrastructure into unified infrastructure. There will be a lot of resources or information in IoT, so computing and processing of information is the core supporting of IoT. In this paper, we introduce “Service-Oriented Computing” to solve the problem where each device can offer its functionality as standard services. Here we mainly discuss the access control issue of service-oriented computing in Internet of Things. This paper puts forward a model of Workflow-oriented Attributed Based Access Control (WABAC), and design an access control framework based on WABAC model. The model grants permissions to subjects according to subject atttribute, resource attribute, environment attribute and current task, meeting access control request of SOC. Using the approach presented can effectively enhance the access control security for SOC applications, and prevent the abuse of subject permissions.
