ABSTRACT
This paper briefly traces the evolution of information system architectures
from mainframe-connected terminals to distributed multi-tier architectures.
It presents the challenges facing developers of multi-tier information
systems in providing effective, consistent data policy enforcement,
such as access control in these architectures. Finally, it introduces
"Mobile Policy" (MoP) as a potential solution and presents
a framework for using mobile policy in the business logic tier of multi-tier
information systems.
