12/07/2005: "Report on OASIS, PERMIS, XACML, Shiboleth"

This is my technical contribution to the Blog. I was due one. The report describes and evaluates 4 open source authentication and authorisation sytems which we have been considering for the GOLD project. I suspect this is the last paper that I will write before Christmas. It also marks the end of a very productive November in which I managed to co-author 2 journal papers, 1 conference submission and a technical report.

I am attaching a link to the report in pdf and a web version. The full reference in case you want it is :

Wu Jake, Periorellis Panos, Evaluation of Authorization-Authentication Tools: PERMIS, OASIS, XACML & SHIBOLETH School of Computing Science, Technical Report Series No.CS-TR-935, University of Newcastle Upon Tyne.
