Development of Formal Method Application for Ensuring Safety in Train Control System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, many critical control systems are developed using formal methods. When software applied to such systems is developed, the employment of formal methods in the software requirements specification and verification will provide increased assurance for such applications. Earlier error of overlooked requirement specification can be detected using formal specification method. Also the testing and full verification to examine all reachable states using model checking to undertake formal verification are able to be completed. In this paper, we propose an eclectic approach to incorporate Z(Zed) formal language and ‘Statemate MAGNUM’ which is formal method tools using statechart for applying to the train control systems.

The high speed train control system is a typical hybrid system, which not only contains a continuous evolution process (train position and speed), but also the discrete event between subsystems. Although some formal methods like HUML, HA and DL have already been used in modeling and verification train control systems, they are not good at describing communication behaviors which are in the inte...
