Declarative specifications [PDF]
AbstractDeriving formal specifications from informal requirements is extremely difficult since one has to overcome the conceptual gap between an application domain and the domain of formal specification methods. To reduce this gap we introduce application-specific specification languages, i.e., graphical and textual notations that can be unambiguously ...

In all these examples there appears to be mismatch between the position at which an indefinite appears and its preferred interpretation.
