Abstract
Recent advances in embedded computing and communications technology have facilitated the development of intelligent environments, enabling exciting new ap-plications, but also creating new challenges for security. The large number of het-erogeneous devices, mobile users, and new kinds of applications all contribute to making security administration and enforcement more difficult. We study the problem of access control for such environments, which we call Ac-tive Spaces. Context plays an important role in these systems—users may have different permissions in different situations, making access control harder to con-figure, enforce and understand. Collaboration between users is common in these spaces, and needs to be supported by the system. My thesis is that existing models for access control, such as Role-Based Access Con-trol, can be extended to satisfy the access control requirements for Active Spaces. An access control architecture for Active Spaces must integrate physical and virtual aspects of the environment, provide explicit support for collaborative applications,
