Abstract | In early 1970s the access matrix model for the security of software system was developed [1,2] as a generalized description of operating system protection mechanisms. This matrix is called security matrix, the columns of the matrix represent to some data structures in the system, the rows of the matrix are those potential users of the system, and each element in the matrix is a protection decision, d(i,j), specifying rule that governs the manipulation of the data structure j by user i. The users of the system may be permitted any of a number of different access rights to a data structure such as reading, appending, updating, deletion, execution, and changing protection. A modified access matrix model is used in MULTICS [3] and other virtual memory system.Later in 1984, an access control with single key-lock system was developed [4]. The system involved three matrices namely, assessors key matrix, information locks matrix, and access matrix. Each user has only one key associated with unique lock for each file. For each user and each file there is an access code that represented the permission of user to own, to write, to read, to execute, or not to access the file. The entries of these matrices are non-negative integers and stored in the main memory. However, for a large system that might involve hundreds or thousands of users and a huge number of files. Then, a large memory space is occupied by these three matrices.This research proposes a new technique that converts a number of matrix entries (at least 10) into a rational number and then stored in the memory. When access is requested the appropriate rational number is decoded, through a program, into the unique original matrix entries for the key-lock system to control access of information.The advantages of this new method are: (1) The reduction of the memory space required for the keys, locks, and access codes is at least 80% of the original needs. (2) The techniques of encoding and decoding are simple. (3) The construction of keys and locks still remain as simple as those proposed in [4]. Procedures for encoding and decoding are included and examples are presented. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
