Communications Processor Operating System Study. Executive Summary,

Abstract

This report is an executive summary prepared by the RADC Program Manager for the Communications Processing Operating System Program accomplished by Plessey Fairfield and Data Industries for RADC under Contract F30602-76-C-0456. The CPOS final report consists of 9 volumes which include the major technical areas of concern in designing a secure, accountable and reliable operating system that would control the hardware/software resources of an integrated switching node for the Defense Communications System in the 1990's. This executive summary condenses the large amount of material generated, and gives a detailed summary explanation and comments on Volumes 1-7 which comprise the Communications Processor Operating System Report. The information contained herein covers the type of security, accountability, reliability, and verifiability needed to control resources of an integrated communications node composed of circuit, message and packet switching.
