Privilege control in knowledge-based system integration

Unlike traditional system integration, the knowledge systems integration is to integrate knowledge-based systems in enterprise in order to weave different domain knowledge. While weaving domain knowledge, the privilege control is required that the activity's scope of agent should be analyzable and controllable to keep agent's autonomy and system's regulation in a balance. With the assumption of ontological interaction commitment, we introduce the structure and algebraic definition of privilege, and then propose the privilege model for privilege control in knowledge systems integration. The privilege model provides a method to represent the privilege of agent's action, to delimit the promised privilege, and to analyze the conflict of privilege compliance.
