    The first access control matrix:

    Alice Bob Cindy

    alicerc rwx r r

    bobrc r rwx rw

    cyndyrc rwx

    The access control matrix after the new permissions:

    Bob will not have access to read alicerc. So, r is deleted in the CMA. Alice will have access to read cyndyrc. So, r is added to the CMA.

    Alice Bob Cindy

    alicerc rwx r

    bobrc r rwx rw

    cyndyrc r rwx
