Integrating BON and Object-Z

چکیده

A significant limitation with object-oriented formal specification languages, such as Object-Z, is that they lack development and management processes, which can be used to guide the production of reliable, robust object-oriented systems. An integration of an object-oriented methodology, BON, and Object-Z is presented in order to add an industrially validated development process to Object-Z. An extensible CASE tool for BON is also described that supports the integration with an Object-Z code generation engine.

From Z to BON/Eiffel

It is shown how to make a transition from the Z formal notation [3] to the Business Object Notation (BON) [4]. It is demonstrated that BON has the expressive power of Z, with the additional advantages of object-orientation and a supporting seamless development method. The transition is illustrated for some widely used Z constructs. The translation lays the groundwork for a semi-automated tool f...

Developing BON as an Industrial-Strength Formal Method

The emerging Unified Modelling Language has been touted as merging the best features of existing modelling languages, and has been adopted by leading companies and vendors as a universal software modelling language. Some researchers are also looking to UML as a basis for formal methods development. A less known approach is BON (the Business Object Notation), which is based on the principles of ...

Model Checking Object-Z Using ASM

A major problem with creating tools for Object-Z is that its high-level abstractions are difficult to deal with directly. Integrating Object-Z with a more concrete notation is a sound strategy. With this in mind, in this paper we introduce an approach to model-checking Object-Z specifications based on first integrating Object-Z with the Abstract State Machine (ASM) notation to get the notation ...

An Integration of Real-Time Object-Z and CSP for Specifying Concurrent Real-Time Systems

Real-Time Object-Z is an integration of the object-oriented formal specification language Object-Z with a timed trace notation suitable for modelling timing constraints and continuous variables. This extends the applicability of Object-Z to real-time and embedded systems. In this paper, we enhance the ability of Real-Time Object-Z to specify concurrent real-time and embedded systems by semantic...

BON-CASE: An Extensible CASE Tool for Formal Specification and Reasoning

We describe BON-CASE, an extensible tool for the BON modelling language. The tool’s support for formal techniques – in particular, for formal specification of contracts and frames, as a platform for verification of Eiffel code, for lightweight integration with existing reasoning tools (such as type checkers, theorem provers, and static assertion checkers), and its extensible architecture – is d...
