چکیده

In this paper we develop a formal specification of aspects of the Forth programming language. We describe the operation of the Forth compiler as it translates Forth control words, dealing in particular with the interpretation of immediate words during compilation. Our goal here is to provide a basis for the study of safety properties of embedded systems, many of which are constructed using Forth or Forth-like languages. To this end we construct a model of the Forth compiler in the π-calculus, and have simulated its execution by animating this model using the Pict programming

A Formal Model of Forth Control Words in the Pi-Calculus - and its animation in Pict

In this paper we develop a formal model of aspects of the Forth programming language. We describe the operation of the Forth compiler as it translates Forth control words, dealing in particular with the interpretation of immediate words during compilation. Our goal here is to provide a basis for the study of safety properties of embedded systems, many of which are constructed using Forth or For...

Design and formal verification of DZMBE+

In this paper, a new broadcast encryption scheme is presented based on threshold secret sharing and secure multiparty computation. This scheme is maintained to be dynamic in that a broadcaster can broadcast a message to any of the dynamic groups of users in the system and it is also fair in the sense that no cheater is able to gain an unfair advantage over other users. Another important feature...

A Look Around the Corner: The Pi-Calculus

While Petri nets play a leading role as a formal foundation for business process management (BPM), other formalizations have been explored as well. This chapter introduces the π-calculus as a formal foundation for BPM. The approach presented is pattern-centric, thus allowing for direct comparisons between the π-calculus and different formalizations. In particular, selected basic and advanced co...

Using Pi-calculus to Model Dynamic Web Services Composition Based on the Authority Model

There are lots of research works on web service, composition, modeling, verification and other problems. Theses research works are done on the basis of formal methods, such as petri-net, pi-calculus, automata theory, and so on. Pi-calculus is a natural vehicle to model mobility aspect in dynamic web services composition (DWSC). However, it has recently been shown that pi-calculus needs to be ex...
