Towards Probabilistic Modelling in Event-B

Abstract. Event-B provides us with a powerful framework for correctby-construction system development. However, while developing dependable systems we should not only guarantee their functional correctness but also quantitatively assess their dependability attributes. In this paper we investigate how to conduct probabilistic assessment of reliability of control systems modeled in Event-B. We show how to transform an Event-B model into a Markov model amendable for probabilistic reliability analysis. Our approach enables integration of reasoning about correctness with quantitative analysis of reliability.
