Prior Art Collection Template (using Authorisation as an example)

Unless this notice is removed earlier, please allow until Monday June 16th for this page to be drafted

The goal of this page is to form a template for gathering information on prior art on a particular topic to guide the design of LWS. See here for a tracker of research topics and leads.

Prior art SHOULD include:

• Points in the existing Solid Specification where the topic is discussed (e.g. WAC/ACP for Authorisation).
  • https://solidproject.org/TR/wac
  • https://solid.github.io/authorization-panel/acp-specification/
• Surrounding specifications (e.g. the Solid Application Interoperability - SAI - specification for Authorisation).
  • https://solid.github.io/data-interoperability-panel/specification/#authorization
• Non-Solid, including appropriate W3C and non-W3C specifications that address a similar topic.
• Lessons from implementations of the current Solid specification (as pointers to existing discussions rather than text here)
• Non-Solid technical implementations that we may wish to (1) learn from (2) afford for or (3) bring into LWS to standardise with - e.g. the AWS or GDrive permissions systems for Authorisation
  • https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/security/protect-sensitive-data-in-the-cloud-with-automated-reasoning-zelkova/
• Research write-ups (e.g. academic papers) on the topic
