Abstract :
D. McCullough´s (1988) state machine formulism and definition of restrictiveness are restated. An example system is presented which illustrates the problem of probabilistic interference. An extension to McCullough´s work that solves the problem of probabilistic interference is developed. A series of examples are presented which are designed to show the application of this extension. An example which is a novel solution to the so-called secure readers-writers problem is also presented
