....an academic exercise, a form of mental masturbation for academics that has no relation to real world problems. Highly publicized accounts of the application of formal methods to a number of well known systems, such as Sizewell B [2] CICS [36] the Darlington Nuclear Facility [45] and Airbus [46], have helped to bring the industrial application of formal methods to a wider audience. 3 Seven More Myths Many of Hall s myths were, and to a certain extent still are, propagated by the media, and are myths held by the public and the computer science community at large, rather than by ....

An Airbus Cabin Illumination System The airbus cabin illumination specification comes from an article called The CIDS A330 340 Cabin Communication System A Z Application . [3] This is a large case study making considerable use of schema inclusion within schema box definitions and schema definition by complex inline schema calculus which emulates switch or case expressions. The sheer size of the specification was a useful test and the sophistication of the Z was a good ....

....against the specification. Here we will demonstrate, how we will carry out this step automatically, using the Z specification as a reference. Finally, we will present first results from a case study, in which we apply these techniques to an existing project, the Cabin Illumination System (CIL) [6]) which is part of the Airbus CIDS system. A more detailed presentation of the ideas given in this paper can be found in [10] Here, also other application areas rather than embedded systems software testing will be demonstrated. Although the ideas are presented for Z here, they might be easily ....

....2. To find out how these techniques apply in real life, we started a case study, where we repeated the software integration testing process for the CIL application from the CIDS system. The Cabin Illumination System (CIL) controls operation of the illumination units in the different cabin areas. [6] describes application and its specification in full detail. The size of the specification written for this application is about 35 pages of annotated Z specification (meaning about 25 pages of pure Z) which result in about 6000 (uncommented) lines of C application code for 95 functions.

....they work in KE First of all, the premise of this myth is increasingly untrue as time proceeds. Highly publicized accounts of the application of formal methods to a number of well known systems, e.g. the Darlington Nuclear Facility in the UK [2, 61] the CICS project at IBM UK [40] and Airbus [62], all reported in [39] References [22] and [21] provide a useful survey of the use of formal methods in SE. Secondly, as already stated above, the formal languages recently developed for KE purposes are tightly coupled with the underlying conceptual models developed earlier in the field. This has ....
