5.6. Borrowing from Well-Established Fields
When considering the derivation of solutions to survivability problems we will subscribe to the notion of optimality. In an attempt to find solutions and increase rigor in certain critical cyber problem domains, we will investigate transformations of security and survivability problems to other well-established disciplines, utilizing their mathematical models.
Using problem transformation in order to solve hard problems is not a new strategy; it has been used extensively in mathematics and engineering. Well-known examples include exponentiation or Laplace transformation. The general strategy is to transform the original problem into a different problem space in which known solutions exist, or solutions ...
