- POLYANDER
POLYANDER is a project which aims to further the development of policy-based network and systems management. It proposes to combine the language based approach formulated at Imperial College with the CISCO Information Model (CIM-CX) based on the Common Information Model (CIM), a DMTF Standard. The project aims to achieve significant advances in user definition of policy given the CIM-CX model, refinement of high level policies into lower-level, device-specific ones, validation of policy against device capabilities, and conflict analysis for a set of policies.
The Distributed Management Task Force, Inc. (DMTF) is the industry organization leading the development of management standards and integration technology for enterprise and Internet environments. DMTF technologies include information models (CIM), communication/control protocols (WBEM), and core management services/utilities.

Project area of interest is Specification and Analysis of Security Policy for Distributed Systems. Objective of this project is to provide a framework for managing security in large, multi-organisational distributed systems. This will include techniques and tools for specification of security policy by refining high level goals into implementable policies, analysis of policies for inconsistencies and conflicts, and example mappings onto modern security implementation mechanisms. It will build upon the Role based management framework developed during the EPSRC funded Roleman project and related work at Imperial College.
