This archive started life as a project of the COAST group at Purdue University. COAST (Computer Operations, Audit, and Security Technology) has since been subsumed by CERIAS but we would like to acknowledge all that layed the groundwork for this archive. This particular archive project has been sponsored by: * Sun Microsystems. A generous gift of equipment and support funds by Sun Microsystems has made it possible to dedicate a system and large disk to this project. * IBM Corporation. IBM has funded a Shared University Research program at Purdue. COAST has received a grant under SUR, and this funded the efforts of several of the grad students involved in the project. * Purdue University and the Department of Computer Sciences have provided funding, space, and staff support for this project. Persons making significant contributions of time and effort to the establishment of the archive: Mark Crosbie Dave Curry Ivan Krsul Sandeep Kumar Christoph Schuba Gene Spafford Frank Wang Brian Poole Kent Wert We welcome any suggestions for reorganization, additions, or useful changes to the archive and its contents.
