Abstract: The arguments for using formal techniques in the construction of complex systems are reviewed, and the re nement and retrenchment techniques in particular are summarised. Coarse grained retrenchment, with its capacity to analyse and express system properties at various levels of granularity, is promoted as a laboratory for understanding emergent behaviour of complex systems.
