  • Abstract
    The authors discuss the design issues related to secure distributed systems, particularly with respect to verification, and survey a few systems to see how they address these issues. They present specification and verification techniques that are applicable to secure distributed systems, emphasizing an approach to achieving a verified design through the hook-up of verified components. Finally, they discuss how this approach can be applied to a secure distributed system design.<>
