We envisage a fine-grained access control solution that allows a user's access privilege to be linked to the confidence level (hereafter referred to as the assurance level) in identifying the user. Such a solution would be particularly attractive to a large-scale distributed res…

This thesis concerns the modified and improved, time-stepping, dynamic reluctance mesh (DRM) modelling technique for machines and its application to multiple machine systems with their control algorithms. Improvements are suggested which enable the stable solution of the resulti…
