Abstract
The subtractive approach to interior intrusion detection system design assumes that all sensors are viable candidates until they are subjected to the constraints imposed by a. particular facility. The constraints are determined by a sequence of questions concerning parameters such as threat definition, facility description and operation, environment, assets to be protected, security system capabilities, and cost. As a result of the questioning, some sensors will be eliminated from the candidate list, and the \"best\" set of sensors for the facility will remain. This form of questioning could be incorporated into an expert system aiding future intrusion detection system designs.
