Abstract:With the growth of cloud technology, distributed application platform develops towards elasticity resources and dynamic migration environment. The refinement of distributed application access control policies was associated with resources and environment, which also needs to improve performance to adapt to the dynamics. Although present access control space policies conflict analysis methods could be used in the conflict analysis of distributed application access control policies refinement. The granularity of its calculating unit is too fine to make batter performance. In this article, the authors designed a conflict analysis algorithm used in distributed application access control policies refinement, the conflict analysis algorithm was based on recursive calculation the intersection of sets and the calculation unit of the algorithm was permission assignment unit which improved computing granularity. The experimental results and analysis show that the proposed algorithm has better performance, and fits the needs of improving computing performance of cloud platform access control policies refinement.
