Title:
On the Role of Scheduling in Simulation-Based Security
Authors: Ran Canetti, Ling Cheung, Nancy Lynch, Olivier Pereira
Abstract:In a series of papers, Küsters et al. investigated the relationships between various notions of simulation-based security. Two main factors, the placement of a master process'' and the existence of
forwarder processes’‘, were found to affect the relationship between different definitions. In this extended abstract, we add a new dimension to the analysis of simulation-based security, namely, the scheduling of concurrent processes. We show that, when we move from sequential scheduling (as used in previous studies) to task-based nondeterministic scheduling, the same syntactic definition of security gives rise to incomparable semantic notions of security. Under task-based scheduling, the hierarchy based on placement of master process'' is no longer relevant, because no such designation is necessary to obtain meaningful runs of a system. On the other hand, the existence of
forwarder processes’’ remains an important factor.
