Dispositions
Appeals to dispositionality in explanations of phenomena in metaphysics and the philosophy of mind, require that we first agree on what we are talking about. I sketch an account of what dispositionality might be. That account will place me at odds with most current conceptions of dispositionality. My aim is not to establish a weighty ontological thesis, however, but to move the discussion ahead...
متن کاملAuthentication in Ethos
Authentication primitives should be simple, general, and robust against attack. We describe the authentication mechanisms of Ethos, an experimental, clean-slate operating system that has been designed for security. We reexamine and redesign software layering for authentication, and evaluate the resulting security properties. In Ethos, integrated network security and simplified local authenticat...

Dispositional, but not categorical properties, are not susceptible to intrinsic finks, nor are they remediable by intrinsic antidote...

Programming languages have long incorporated type safety, increasing their abstraction level and thus aiding programmers. Type safety eliminates whole classes of bugs, avoiding the tedious and error-prone search for these bugs. Type-related bugs are particularly dangerous and often result in security holes because they violate programmer expectations. Despite its benefits, type safety protectio...

(Gundersen 2003 and 2010 makes a similar suggestion, though he prefers a dispositional account of counterfactuals that enables him to retain a conditional tracking analysis.) John Turri (2012) and Ben Bronner (2012) have offered a...
