The Protection of Information in Computer Systems

by Jerome H. Saltzer, Michael D. Schroeder , 1975
"... This tutorial paper explores the mechanics of protecting computer-stored information from unauthorized use or modification. It concentrates on those architectural structures--whether hardware or software--that are necessary to support information protection. The paper develops in three main sections ..."

architecture. It examines in depth the principles of modern protection architectures and the relation between capability systems and access control list systems, and ends with a brief analysis of protected subsystems and protected objects. The reader who is dismayed by either the prerequisites or the level

The Active Badge Location System

by Roy Want, Veronica Falcao, Jon Gibbons - ACM Transactions on Information Systems , 1992
"... cation is the `pager system'. In order to locate a person a signal is sent out by a central facility that addresses a particular receiver unit (beeper) and produces an audible signal. In addition, it may display a number to which the called-party should phone back (some systems allow a vocal me ..."

The Cricket Location-Support System

by Nissanka B. Priyantha, Anit Chakraborty, Hari Balakrishnan , 2000
"... This paper presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of Cricket, a location-support system for in-building, mobile, locationdependent applications. It allows applications running on mobile and static nodes to learn their physical location by using listeners that hear and analyze informatio ..."

Statecharts: A Visual Formalism For Complex Systems

by David Harel , 1987
"... We present a broad extension of the conventional formalism of state machines and state diagrams, that is relevant to the specification and design of complex discrete-event systems, such as multi-computer real-time systems, communication protocols and digital control units. Our diagrams, which we cal ..."

-alone behavioral description or as part of a more general design methodology that deals also with the system's other aspects, such as functional decomposition and data-flow specification. We also discuss some practical experience that was gained over the last three years in applying the statechart formalism

Sketchpad: A man-machine graphical communication system

by Ivan Edward Sutherland , 2003
"... The Sketchpad system uses drawing as a novel communication medium for a computer. The system contains input, output, and computation programs which enable it to interpret information drawn directly on a computer display. It has been used to draw electrical, mechanical, scientific, mathematical, and ..."

End-To-End Arguments In System Design

by Jerome H. Saltzer, David P. Reed, David D. Clark , 1984
"... This paper presents a design principle that helps guide placement of functions among the modules of a distributed computer system. The principle, called the end-to-end argument, suggests that functions placed at low levels of a system may be redundant or of little value when compared with the cost o ..."
