Abstract

An overview of the Trusted Computing Exemplar (TCX) research project and its accomplishments to date are presented. The TCX project is constructing a separation kernel that will be high assurance and suitable for use in simple embedded systems. To guide the kernel development, we have created a reusable high assurance development framework. The main emphasis of this multifaceted research and development initiative is to transfer knowledge and techniques for high assurance trusted system development new developers, evaluators and educators.
