6.1.2 Policy-based Approach

The policy approach implemented by the NoCScontrol system was mainly influenced by the policy work by Koch presented in section [*].

As in Koch's work, three different policy types reflecting the refinement of policies are used: Strategic policies, goal-oriented policies, and operational policies. Strategic and goal-oriented policy objects are only used as containers for the policy description supporting the refinement process. They are not enforced in any way. For this reason, the operational policies are the most important ones, because they are the most detailed ones and are enforceable by the management system.
