Abstract: . We describe an approach and experimental results in the application of mechanized theorem proving to software requirements analysis. Serving as the test article was the embedded controller for SAFER, a backpack propulsion system used as a rescue device by NASA astronauts. SAFER requirements were previously formalized using PVS during a NASA pilot project in formal methods, details of which appear in a NASA guidebook. This paper focuses on the formulation and proof of properties for the SAFER... (Update)

...10 million instructions per second. We have also used the evaluator to test some of the functions of the Safer example [C 97, Di 99] which uses nested tables and other challenging constructs. It is tedious to write programs that enumerate the cross product of several...
