N2 - Policy conflict analysis processes based solely on the examination of policy language constructs can not readily discern the semantics associated with the managed system for which the policies are being defined. However, by developing analysis processes that can link the constructs of a policy language to the entities of an information model, we can harness knowledge relating to relationships and associations, constraint information, behavioural specifications codified by finite state machines, and extensive semantic information expressed via ontologies to provide powerful policy analysis processes.
