I have put a lot of effort into capturing our technical objectives
over the past year. The result of these efforts is the critique and
the decomposition and refinement paper (Improving Usability via Access
Decomposition and Policy Refinement). The latter in particular
presents a number of scenarios that we are specifically interested in
addressing.
- security: programs are not users; they should be constrained
according to the user's intents
- resource management
- efficiency: facilitate use of local knowledge
- soft real-time: expose virtualized resources with useful access
case characteristics
- integration: safe extension of the system
I apologize if this is not enough but this is the limit of my
abilities at the moment.
