  This document proposes a four level abstraction hierarchy for CAETI systems architectures. Some possible applications are described briefly.

• Defining a Security Reference Architecture , Sigurd Meldal and David Luckham. 25 page technical report.

  
  This report discusses the definition and modeling of reference architectures that specify the security aspects of distributed systems. NSA's MISSI (Multilevel Information System Security Initiative) security architecture is used as an illustrative example. We show how one would define such a reference architecture, and how one could use such a definition to model as well as check implementations for compliance with the reference.
