TLDR
An integrated security model for a low-cost laptop that will be widely deployed throughout the developing world is presented, designed to restrict the laptop's software without restricting theaptop's user.Abstract:
We present an integrated security model for a low-cost laptop that will be widely deployed throughout the developing world. Implemented on top of Linux operating system, the model is designed to restrict the laptop's software without restricting the laptop's user.read more
