Dr. David S. Stodolsky <@uunet.uu.net:stodol@diku.dk>
responds to earlier discussions and questions raised by
Chris McDonald <cmcdonal@wsmr-emh10.army.mil> regarding Dr.
Stodolsky's paper "Net hormones: Part 1 - Infection control assuming
cooperation among computers "
In an article that I haven't seen yet, D. Platt discusses biological
analogues for software. [ Platt, D. (1989b, May 10). Biological
analogues. Virus-L Digest , 2(112).]
At the 10th National Computer Security Conference (Oct 1987) a paper
was given on the Taxonomy of Computer Viruses. In my opinion, that
paper should be expanded upon, developed into a comprehensive taxonomy
of computer software, and should be made available to every university
library and computer scientist. My attention has been diverted to
other endeavors in the intervening year and a half, so possibly such
work is on-going without my being aware of it. If so, would this
group kindly direct me. If not, could we start such a compilation and
classification?
Blessed Be,
Jeff Hull ...!ncar!dinl!hull
