Abstract: An organization-based access control (OBAC) system defines resource access rights using graph-based team node trees, each comprising a plurality of hierarchically-connected team nodes. Each team node is associated with a list of members, team resources, and a team-specific access policy that defines the rights of team members to access the team resources. When a node in a tree has one or more descendant nodes, boundary access policies can be generated to define rights, of members of the node, to access resources associated with descendant nodes. Such boundary access policies may grant parent team members different access rights for child team resources than is granted to the child team members. A node management policy can grant rights to manage a portion of a team node tree. Team-specific access policies, boundary access policies, and management policies can include unique references to one or more particular resources, resource attributes, or groups of resources.

Abstract: A system that generates a portal web site that includes a plurality of reusable components defines, for each reusable component, metadata for each event raised and generates event wiring for the portal web site. In response to an event being raised by a producer component, the system makes the event available to all consumer components on the portal web site by generating an event context storage. The system then configures each consumer component based on the event.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for delegating authority over licenses to use computer products in a disconnected network. In one example, a collector device receives a delegation of authority from a license manager device to manage entitlements for a plurality of computer products installed in a network infrastructure. The collector device receives an identifier from each computer product. The collector device receives a configuration state of each computer product, wherein each configuration state includes a set of features that are enabled on the first computer product. The collector device sends to the license manager device a report that includes each identifier and each configuration state.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for auditing and managing licenses for use of computer products. A license manager of a vendor receives an identifier of a computer product and a report of a set of licensed features enabled on the computer product. The license manager identifies a customer account associated with the identifier. The customer account includes a pool of entitlements acquired by the customer. The license manager compares the report with the entitlements in the pool, and with the customer's use of other computer products which draw entitlements from that pool, to generate a comparison result. An authorization decision of “in compliance” or “out of compliance” may be returned to the requesting computer product.
