Abstract

This is a work-in-progress report on multiprocesser architectures for supporting secure database management. The basic configuration contains three logical modules -- the user and applications module, the data storage and retrieval module, and the protection and security module. Each module resides on one or more processors that form a multiprocessor system called MULTISAFE. The background leading to the configuration and the functional characteristics of MULTISAFE are discussed. Some problems and questions for further research are also identified.
