Survivable Grids: Resource Management through Dynamic Authorization Control

| Abstract | Grids are rapidly becoming part of our nation’s critical infrastructure. As the importance of grids in our everyday lives increases, so does the need to make grids survivable- that is, to allow them to be easily reconfigured to support new priorities or changes in the underlying resource fabric. Few exposed mechanisms exist for such reconfiguration in today’s grid software. We propose the use of authorization, through control of authorization policy as a means to achieve this goal. This paper describes our use of a system based on multiple, independent control loops that manipulate authorizations to manage a grid’s resources and dynamically make them more available to different classes of users or applications. This reconfiguration is done using rights specifically delegated to management authorities using the logic-based Security Policy Authorization Language (SecPAL). 1. |
