We present a semantic framework for privileges and certificates and an associated calculus, encoded as a logic ... ...

We then describe our architected solution based on the XACML conceptual and data flow models. We also present at a conceptual level the policy elements ...

WS-BPEL falls short on one feature though: as ...
