Abstract: . In this paper we describe how a functional version of the 4-variable model can be decomposed to improve its practical application to industrial software veri cation problems. An example is then used to illustrate the limitations of the functional model and motivate a modest extension of the 4-variable model to an 8-variable relational model. The 8-variable model is designed to allow the system requirements to be speci ed as functions with input and output tolerance relations, as is typically... (Update)
