Steps Towards a Method for the Formal Modeling of Dynamic Objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Fragments of a method to formally specify object-oriented models of a universe of discourse are presented. The task of finding such models is divided into three subtasks, object classification, event specification, and the specification of the life cycle

Most General Algebraic Specifications for an Abstract Datatype of Rational Numbers

open access: yesScientific Annals of Computer Science, 2020
The notion of a most general algebraic specification of an arithmetical datatype of characteristic zero is introduced. Three examples of such specifications are given. A preference is formulated for a specification by means of infinitely many equations

Formal refinement of extended state machines [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016
In a traditional formal development process, e.g. using the B method, the informal user requirements are (manually) translated into a global abstract formal specification. This translation is especially difficult to achieve.

Deriving semantics from WS-BPEL specifications of parallel business processes on an example [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерные исследования и моделирование, 2015
WS-BPEL is a widely accepted standard for specification of business distributed and parallel processes. This standard is a mismatch of algebraic and Petri net paradigms.

The foundational legacy of ASL [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
. We recall the kernel algebraic specification language ASL and outline its main features in the context of the state of research on algebraic specification at the time it was conceived in the early 1980s. We discuss the most significant new ideas in ASL

On the Modeling and Verification of Collective and Cooperative Systems

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2022
The formal description and verification of networks of cooperative and interacting agents is made difficult by the interplay of several different behavioral patterns, models of communication, scalability issues.

A Software Development Model for the Automatic Generation of Classes

open access: yesCLEI Electronic Journal, 2018
In this paper it is presented a software development model based on transformations that allows to derive, in an automatic way, classes in object-oriented programming languages (Ada 95, C++, Eiffel and Java) starting from formal specifications.

Observation and abstract behaviour in specification and implementation of state-based systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Classical algebraic specification is an accepted framework for specification. A criticism which applies is the fact that it is functional, not based on a notion of state as most software development and implementation languages are.

LeGESD: A framework oriented to the specification and formal validation of concurrent and distributed systems based on a graphical language and its process algebra semantics

open access: yesRevista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2012
The specification and formal verification of distributed systems is usually a complex task. It requires extensive knowledge of algorithm theory and modeling of distributed or concurrent systems.
