An XMLBased Approach for the Automatic Verification of Software Requirements Specifications
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present an approach for the automatic verification of software requirements specifications. This approach is based on the representation of software requirements in XML and the usage of the XSLT language not only to automatically generate requirements documents, but also to verify some desired quality properties and to automatically compute some metrics. These ideas have been implemented in REM, an experimental requirements management tool that is also described in this paper.

Generating Logical Specifications from Requirements Models for Deduction-based Formal Verification
The work concerns automatic generation of logical specifications from requirements models. Logical specifications obtained in such a way can be subjected to formal verification using deductive reasoning. Formal verification concerns correctness of a model behaviour. Reliability of the requirements engineering is essential for all phases of software development processes. Deductive reasoning is ...

In this paper, we present an approach for the automatic verification of software requirements specifications. This approach is based on the representation of software requirements in XML and the usage of the XSLT language not only to automatically generate requirements documents, but also to verify some desired quality properties and to automatically compute some defect–predictive metrics. Thes...
متن کاملAutomatic Analysis of Embedded Systems Specified in Astral
A prerequisite for successful software development is the availability of a complete and consistent software requirements specification. One way to asses the correctness of requirements specifications is the application of formal verification. Recently, the verification tool Uppaal [12, 16] has become available. Uppaal performs automatic verification of properties of real-time systems through m...
متن کاملAn automatic test case generator for evaluating implementation of access control policies
One of the main requirements for providing software security is the enforcement of access control policies which aim to protect resources of the system against unauthorized accesses. Any error in the implementation of such policies may lead to undesirable outcomes. For testing the implementation of access control policies, it is preferred to use automated methods which are faster and more relia...
متن کاملA Hybrid Meta-heuristic Approach to Cope with State Space Explosion in Model Checking Technique for Deadlock Freeness
Model checking is an automatic technique for software verification through which all reachable states are generated from an initial state to finding errors and desirable patterns. In the model checking approach, the behavior and structure of system should be modeled. Graph transformation system is a graphical formal modeling language to specify and model the system. However, modeling of large s...
