Abstract

In the context of our work, we devote this paper to the derivation from the PIM level to the PSM level in accordance with the MDA approach. PrivUML, the meta-model that we proposed in our previous work to model the privacy protection requirements, will be transformed into XACML by relying on the QVT transformation language. This paper presents this derivation process as well as the changes made to make our transformation a success. It also discusses the concept of anonymization and our integration proposal to be able to guarantee dynamic data anonymization.
