6.1.2.3 Policy Life Cycle

The main focus was to establish a flexible architecture for the enforcement of policies in the development of the NoCScontrol system. This resulted in a limited number of supporting processes at this stage of the implementation. As a result, the policy life cycle reflects mainly the enforcement of policies. The policy life cycle in the NoCScontrol system is shown in figure .

A supporting process exists to syntactically check the PDL description of a stated policy.
