Generally, smart campus applications do not consider the role of the user with
his/her position in a university environment, consequently irrelevant information
is delivered to the users. This dissertation proposes a location-based access
control model, named Smart-RBAC, extending the functionality of Role-based
Access Control Model (RBAC) by including user’s location as the contextual
attribute, to solve the aforementioned problem. Smart-RBAC model is designed
with a focus on content delivery to the user in order to offer a feasible level of
flexibility, which was missing in the existing location-based access control
models. An instance of the model, derived from Liferay’s RBAC, is implemented
by creating a portal application to test and validate the Smart-RBAC model.
Additionally, portlet-based applications are developed to assess the suitability of
the model in a smart campus environment. The evaluation of the model, based
on a popular theoretical framework, demonstrates the model’s capability to
achieve some security goals like “Dynamic Separation of Duty” and
“Accountability”. We believe that the Smart-RBAC model will improve the
existing smart campus applications since it utilizes both, role and location of the
user, to deliver content. [-]
