Book Animation and Formal Verification of Real time Reactive Systems in an Object oriented Environment

Download or read book Animation and Formal Verification of Real time Reactive Systems in an Object oriented Environment written by Darmalingum Muthiayen and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real-time reactive systems are characterized by their continuous interaction with their environment through stimulus-response behavior. The safety-critical nature of their domain and their inherent complexity advocate the use of formal methods in the software development process. TROMLAB development environment supports a process model adequate for dealing with the complexity of reactive systems. The foundation of the TROMLAB environment is the Timed Reactive Object Model (TROM), which combines object-oriented and real-time technologies. Simulation is essential in the behavioral analysis of real-time reactive systems; animation allows a visualization of the simulation process. A rigorous trace analysis of simulation scenarios provides insight into the behavior of the collaborating entities in the configuration. This supports validation of systems designed incrementally and iteratively in the software development life-cycle. Moreover, safety-critical systems need to be verified for adherence to stringent safety and liveness properties. The scope of this thesis is two-fold. We first present an animation tool supporting simulation of reactive systems described in the TROM formalism. We include formal specifications of the functionalities of the simulator in VDM specification language. We then introduce a methodology for formal verification of TROM subsystems. The novelty of the methodology lies in the formal verification approach embedded within an object-oriented framework. The simulator and the verification methodology conform respectively to the operational and logical semantics of TROMs.

Book Implementing Real time Reactive Systems from Object oriented Design Specifications

Download or read book Implementing Real time Reactive Systems from Object oriented Design Specifications written by Lizhong Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real-time reactive systems are among the most difficult systems to design and implement because of their size and complex functional and timing requirements. TROMLAB is a framework for a rigorous development of consistent design that satisfy an authoritative specification of requirements, validate the design through simulation, and verify the design for safety properties through a formal verifier. This thesis adds one more significant component to TROMLAB by providing a methodology for automatic generation of code in real-time Java for reactive systems designed in TROMLAB framework. The correctness and efficiency of the implementation are illustrated on the implementation of the design for a generalized rail-road crossing problem, a bench-mark case study in the real-time systems community.

Book FME 2001  Formal Methods for Increasing Software Productivity

Download or read book FME 2001 Formal Methods for Increasing Software Productivity written by Jose N. Oliveira and published by Springer. This book was released on 2003-06-29 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FME 2001 is the tenth in a series of meetings organized every eighteen months by Formal Methods Europe (FME), an independent association whose aim is to stimulate the use of, and research on, formal methods for software development. It follows four VDM Europe Symposia, four other Formal Methods Europe S- posia, and the 1999 World Congress on Formal Methods in the Development of Computing Systems. These meetings have been notably successful in bringing - gether a community of users, researchers, and developers of precise mathematical methods for software development. FME 2001 took place in Berlin, Germany and was organized by the C- puter Science Department of the Humboldt-Universit ̈at zu Berlin. The theme of the symposium was Formal Methods for Increasing Software Productivity. This theme recognizes that formal methods have the potential to do more for industrial software development than enhance software quality { they can also increase productivity at many di erent points in the software life-cycle. The importance of the theme is borne out by the many contributed papers showing how formal methods can make software development more e cient. There is an emphasis on tools that nd errors automatically, or with relatively little human e ort. There is also an emphasis on the use of formal methods to assist with critical, labor-intensive tasks such as program design and test-case generation.

Book Formal Methods in Databases and Software Engineering

Download or read book Formal Methods in Databases and Software Engineering written by V.S. Alagar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Logic and object-orientation have come to be recognized as being among the most powerful paradigms for modeling information systems. The term "information systems" is used here in a very general context to denote database systems, software development systems, knowledge base systems, proof support systems, distributed systems and reactive systems. One of the most vigorously researched topics common to all information systems is "formal modeling". An elegant high-level abstraction applicable to both application domain and system domain concepts will always lead to a system design from "outside in"; that is, the aggregation of ideas is around real-life objects about which the system is to be designed. Formal methods \yhen applied with this view in mind, especially during early stages of system development, can lead to a formal reasoning on the intended properties, thus revealing system flaws that might otherwise be discovered much later. Logic in different styles and semantics is being used to model databases and their transactions; it is also used to specify concurrent, distributed, real-time, and reactive systems. ,The notion of "object" is central to the modeling of object oriented databases, as well as object-oriented design and programs in software engineering. Both database and software engineering communities have undoubtedly made important contributions to formalisms based on logic and objects. It is worthwhile bringing together the ideas developed by the two communities in isolation, and focusing on integrating their common strengths.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of FTRTFT 2002, the International S- posium on Formal Techniques in Real-Time and Fault-Tolerant Systems, held at the University of Oldenburg, Germany, 9–12 September 2002. This sym- sium was the seventh in a series of FTRTFT symposia devoted to problems and solutions in safe system design. The previous symposia took place in Warwick 1990, Nijmegen 1992, Lub ̈ eck 1994, Uppsala 1996, Lyngby 1998, and Pune 2000. Proceedings of these symposia were published as volumes 331, 571, 863, 1135, 1486, and 1926 in the LNCS series by Springer-Verlag. This year the sym- sium was co-sponsored by IFIP Working Group 2.2 on Formal Description of Programming Concepts. The symposium presented advances in the development and use of formal techniques in the design of real-time, hybrid, fault-tolerant embedded systems, covering all stages from requirements analysis to hardware and/or software - plementation. Particular emphasis was placed on UML-based development of real-time systems. Through invited presentations, links between the dependable systems and formal methods research communities were strengthened. With the increasing use of such formal techniques in industrial settings, the conference aimed at stimulating cross-fertilization between challenges in industrial usages of formal methods and advanced research. Inresponsetothecallforpapers,39submissionswerereceived.Eachsubm- sion was reviewed by four program committee members assisted by additional referees.

Book Formal Methods and Models for System Design

Download or read book Formal Methods and Models for System Design written by Rajesh Gupta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-10-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps nothing characterizes the inherent heterogeneity in embedded sys tems than the ability to choose between hardware and software implementations of a given system function. Indeed, most embedded systems at their core repre sent a careful division and design of hardware and software parts of the system To do this task effectively, models and methods are necessary functionality. to capture application behavior, needs and system implementation constraints. Formal modeling can be valuable in addressing these tasks. As with most engineering domains, co-design practice defines the state of the it seeks to add new capabilities in system conceptualization, mod art, though eling, optimization and implementation. These advances -particularly those related to synthesis and verification tasks -direct1y depend upon formal under standing of system behavior and performance measures. Current practice in system modeling relies upon exploiting high-level programming frameworks, such as SystemC, EstereI, to capture design at increasingly higher levels of ab straction and attempts to reduce the system implementation task. While raising the abstraction levels for design and verification tasks, to be really useful, these approaches must also provide for reuse, adaptation of the existing intellectual property (IP) blocks.
