1. A method implemented on a computer for producing an automaton capable of providing an access control decision upon receiving an access control request, the method comprising:
- accepting context based access control policies specified in a formal descriptive language;
processing the context based access control policies specified in the formal descriptive language; and
,converting the context based access control policies to the automaton.

18. A method implemented on a computer for producing finite state automata capable of providing an access control decision upon receiving an access control request, the method comprising:
-
reading context based access control policies specified in a formal descriptive language; converting the context based access control policies specified in the formal descriptive language to Monadic Second Order formulae; and
,converting the Monadic Second Order formulae to the finite state automata. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
