چکیده

This paper overviews the work of the EC funded DRIVE Safely project and some of the recommendations for development and production of safe Road Traffic Informatic systems. A selection of the methods currently identified as suitable for formal specification of safety-critical systems is reviewed. A formal specification of the functional and safety requirements for "Pelican" equipment is given in Z. This is used to identify deficiencies in the Department of Transport source specification. The implications of the lack of "formal methods technology" on the choice of a formal specification method for safety-critical systems is discussed.
