This paper describes a design specification and analysis framework to support the OO design stage. Structural and behavioral specifications of objects are integrated and formalize...
Abstract. To support model-based development and analysis of embedded systems, the specification language VDM++ has been extended with asynchronous communication and improved timin...
Formal modelling, in interactive system design, has received considerably less real use than might have been hoped. Heavy weight formal methods can be expensive to use, with poor c...
We introduce a rewrite-based specification language for modelling probabilistic concurrent and distributed systems. The language, based on PMaude, has both a rigorous formal basis...
Abstract. Due to new emerging areas in the communication field there is a constant need for the design of novel communication protocols. This demands techniques for a rapid and eff...
