Abstract
Applicability of temporal data models to query multilevel security databases: a case study Shashi K. Gadia Computer Science Department Iowa State University Ames, IA 50011 gadia@cs.iastate.edu September 1997 Abstract. In a multilevel security database there are multiple beliefs about a given real world object. The ability of a database model to accommodate multiple beliefs is termed polyinstantiation in the multilevel security literature. In this paper we remark that in an abstract sense polyinstantiation is a priori present in all models for temporal and spatial databases. In particular we investigate the applicability of the parametric model for temporal data to query multilevel security data and, as a case study, compare it to a model for multilevel security given by Winslett, Smith, and Qian.
