Abstract
At least one set of enforceable policy provisions is identified within at least one defined service level policy to be enforced during runtime by a policy enforcement point (PEP). Each set of enforceable policy provisions includes a policy subject, a reference to a policy domain, and at least one assertion. Each identified set of enforceable policy provisions is transformed by the PEP into at least one runtime-executable processing rule that each includes at least one PEP processing action that each represents an atomic unit of policy enforcement level behavior executable by the PEP to enforce the respective at least one assertion against runtime objects associated with the policy subject within an area of runtime policy enforcement specified by the policy domain.
