Distributed computing components as security enforcement units The volume and size of real-time (RT) distributed computing (DC) applications are now growing faster than in the last century. On one hand, industry activities in developing the DC applications that are based on both wired and wireless networks and include some RT computing components, are showing healthy growth. On the other hand, newly emerging large-scale RT DC systems show steady growth in scale and complexity. The mixture of

The increase in use of shared resources accompanies with it the needs for effective security enforcement. More specifically, the needs are to prevent unauthorized users: (1) from accessing protected information; and
