1. One or more processor-readable media having processor-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, perform a method comprising: generating multiple meta-policies, wherein a meta-policy controls the application of policies to one or more target computing nodes; analyzing—in the context of the multiple meta-policies—subject policies for the one or more target computing nodes; based upon the analyzing act, determining existence of overlap in the multiple meta-policies and conflicts in the subject policies; based upon the determining act, facilitating a computation of a resultant set of policies (RSOP).
