Principles of Trust for Embedded Systems

Abstract

The development of trusted systems is a long-standing, elusive, and ill-defined objective in many domains. This paper gives substance and explicit meaning to the terms "trust" and "trustworthy" as they relate to automated systems and to embedded systems in particular. Principles of trust are identified. Some of their implications for software engineering practice and for the design of hardware-based trusted computing platforms are also discussed.
