Abstract: Formal software development techniques facilitate the design and implementation of more reliable computer systems, which is particularly important for the development of safety-critical systems. In particular, formal specification languages provide a means for precisely characterizing the behavior of a computer system and its components, and facilitates the determination of correct implementation using automated reasoning techniques. While formal specifications can be created using a word... (Update)

...of programming structures that can be developed from formal specifications. A syntax based editor with a graphical user interface [10] has been developed in order to facilitate the specification construction process. We are also studying methods to transform informal problem...

.... facilitates the early evaluation of a software design and verification of its implementation through the use of formal reasoning techniques [7, 9, 10, 11]. A formal specification can be mathematically manipulated to allow the designer to assess the consistency, completeness,...
