USING FORMAL METHODS FOR TEST CASE GENERATION ACCORDING TO TRANSITION-BASED COVERAGE CRITERIA [PDF]
Formal methods play an important role in increasing the quality, reliability, robustness and effectiveness of software. Also the uses of formal methods, especially in safety-critical systems, help in the early detection of software errors and failures ...

Verification of HotStuff BFT Consensus Protocol With TLA+/TLC in an Industrial Setting [PDF]
The extent of formal verification methods applied in industrial projects has always been limited. The proliferation of distributed ledger systems (DLS), also known as blockchain, is rapidly changing the situation. Since the main area of DLSs’ application

Formalizing Anaesthesia: A case study in formal specification [PDF]
We report on the formalization of knowledge for a support system in the field of anaesthesiology. It is a case study in the use of the formal specification method we are developing. The method consists of guidelines (using concepts from object-oriented design methods), language (AFSL, Almost Formal Specification Language) and tools (type-checker ...

Provably correct Java implementations of Spi Calculus security protocols specifications [PDF]
Spi Calculus is an untyped high level modeling language for security protocols, used for formal protocols specification and verification. In this paper, a type system for the Spi Calculus and a translation function are formally defined, in order to ...

Testing refinements by refining tests [PDF]
One of the potential benefits of formal methods is that they offer the possibility of reducing the costs of testing. A specification acts as both the benchmark against which any implementation is tested, and also as the means by which tests are generated.

Specification Patterns: Formal and Easy
Property specification is still one of the most challenging tasks for transference of software verification technology. The use of patterns has been proposed in order to hide the complicated handling of formal languages from the developer. However, this goal is not entirely satisfied. When validating the desired property the developer may have to deal
