Trust meta-policies for flexible and dynamic policy based trust management

It is possible to impose the will of the user or administrator through the specification of policies. These policies reflect the users or administrators goals; however the context in which these goals operate can vary greatly. This paper builds on our previous work where we demonstrated the creation and use of policies that had trust conditions embedded. The work reported on here exposes these trust conditions explicitly as trust meta-policies
