Establishing Role-based Access Control in Viewpoint-oriented Variability Management
Process roles are used to structure complex engineering processes in single
sys-tems development for many years. Typically, each role has specific
responsi-bilities from which certain information demands originate. In the
engineering of variable software, role-specific information demands affect
variability in-formation. To control the access to the variability information,
we suggest us-ing the concepts of an explicit access control model. We
integrate an access control model and a variability modeling language on a
conceptual level. Ad-ditionally, we extend the variability modeling language by
formally defined operations. Based on this extension, we propose a formal
integration of an ac-cess control model and the variability modeling language.
Our solution allows to explicitly define access control to variability
information on a formal basis.Comment: 15 pages, 12 figure
