Research
Support Vector Machines on Role Engineering, Obligations, Policy Analysis, Fine-grained Access Control on Database, and Privacy-aware Access Control. I proposed a family of Privacy aware Role Based Access Control Models(P-RBAC) which naturally extend classical RBAC family models to support privacy sensitive data access in an enterprise level.
