Abstract
Controlling information resources involves accessing a control definition of a number of control definitions associated with a first party and a second party. The first party has a first information resource and the second party has a second information resource, where the first information resource is in communication with the second information resource. The control definitions define a practice for monitoring the second information resource, where each control definition has a condition and a consequence. Meta-data is received from a second monitor of the second information resource, where the meta-data describes operation of the second information resource. The condition is applied to the meta-data in order to monitor the second information resource.
