management session

Hi, I use smallwiki1, I'd like to find some information about the management session. I read the document: Management and Security of Collaborative Web Environments written from Prof. Dr. St´ephane Ducasse Prof. Dr. Oscar Nierstrasz There I didn't find for example if I'm login where the server save the username and password, or if I close the window how long the server still see me logged?how long is the timeout? Could someone tell me where can I find a document that talk about this or describe the management session, please. I'll look forward to receive an answer... thanks Gianluca
