Implementation of a parallel multilevel secure process. Master's thesis

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6599437

This thesis demonstrates an implementation of a parallel multilevel secure process. This is done within the framework of an electronic-mail system. Security is implemented by GEMSOS, the operating system of the Gemini Trusted Computer Base. A brief history of computer secrecy is followed by a discussion of security kernels. Event counts and sequences are used to provide concurrency control and are covered in detail. The specifications for the system are based upon the requirements for a Headquarters of a hypothetical Marine Battalion in garrison.
