Abstract

Incremental design with information flow goals. Designers of secure systems would like to be able to work incrementally. Having designed a fragment of a system—and checked that it establishes some security goal—they would like to be able to design additional portions and combine them. It is, however, very difficult to ensure that the resulting composite system still establishes the security goals that the initial fragment was found to have.

This abstract, which summarizes the motivation and results of [1], is dedicated in warm friendship to Pierpaolo Degano.
