Mobile devices, like cell phones and PDAs, allow to store information and to establish connections with external entities. The JME platform, a Java enabled technology, provides the MIDP standard that facilitates applications development and specifies a security model for the controlled access to sensitive resources of the device. This paper describes a high level formal specification of an access controller for JME-MIDP 2.0. This formal definition of the controller has been obtained as an extension of a specification, developed using the Calculus of Inductive Constructions and the proof assistant Coq, of the MIDP 2.0 security model. The paper also discusses the refinement of the specification into an executable model and describes the algorithm which has been proven to be a correct implementation of the specified access controller.
