The Semantic Firewall
project will develop a formal basis, methods, and tools for Grid
security. The problem is to enforce network security policies
between trust domains in the presence of dynamically changing and
unpredictable Grid communication needs.
By combining conventional Grid security with semantic reasoning methods,
we aim to provide dynamic, adaptive network security.
This an European EPSRC project which started in October 2003 and is a collaboration between the Intelligence, Agents, Multimedia Group of the Department of the Electronics and Computer Science at Southampton University and IT Innovations. SRI International and the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC) collaborate with the University of Southampton and IT Innovations on this project. The researchers on this project are: Terry Payne and Ronald Ashri from Southampton University, Mike Surridge, Darren Marvin, and Steve Taylor from IT Innovations, Jeff Bradshaw and Andrzej Uszok from IHMC, and Grit Denker from SRI International.
