A binary single-key-lock system for access control

A binary coding method was invented and has been applied to the single-key-lock (SKL) system which achieves access control by associating with each accesser only one key and with each resource only one lock. The new system is called the binary single-key-lock (BSKL) system. In both the SKL and BSKL systems, through operations on the single-key-lock pair, the control information can be revealed. On the basis of the new binary coding method, and because binary operations are much faster, better performance for such an access control system can be achieved. The increased extensibility of the modification is also discussed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>

Access Control with Single-Key-Lock

Based on the concept of an access matrix, a new protection system that achieves access control is proposed. In this system, associated with each accessor is only a key, and associated with each resource is only a lock, and through simple operations on the keys and locks, privacy decisions of the protection system can be revealed. Amechanism that realizes this system is also described. Noticing the importance of the role hierarchies play in access control, another mechanism is devised such that each node in the hierarchy is assigned a key and a simple operation on any two keys reveals the relationship of the two nodes corresponding to the two keys.
