At line # 138-139, profile says that "Reduction is always performed in the context of a request R, which is being evaluated *against a policy set*." Let me know that "*Reduction*must be performed *against a policy set*" *or we can performed reduction against a policy*". ?.
The policy set referred to in this statement is the policy set containing the untrusted policy P, which is the policy to be reduced. The administrative request A, generated from R and P, is evaluated against the other policies in the policy set referred to above, i.e., the siblings of P. Note the statement at the beginning of the Glossary: "For simplicity, this document uses the term policy to include the XACML definitions for both policy and policy set." Thus the policy P may instead be a policy set, and the sibling policies that authorize it may instead be policy sets. Regards, Steven
