Decomposition tool for event-B

Abstract. Two methods have been identified for Event-B model decomposition: shared variable and shared event. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the two approaches and the respective tool support in the Rodin platform. Besides alleviating the complexity for large systems and respective proofs, decomposition allows team development in parallel over the same model which is very attractive in the industrial environment. Key words: Formal Methods, Event-B, Decomposition, Shared Event, Shared Variable, Team Development, Rodin
