Modelling and Refining Hybrid Systems in Event-B and Rodin

Co-simulating event-B and continuous models via FMI

We present a generic co-simulation approach between discrete-event models, developed in the Event-B formal method, and continuous models, exported via the Functional Mock-up Interface for Co-simulation standard. The concept is implemented into a simulation extension for the Rodin platform, thus leveraging powerful capabilities of refinementbased modelling and deductive verification in Event-B w...

Modeling, Verification and Testing of P Systems Using Rodin and ProB

In this paper we present an approach to modelling, verification and testing for cell-like P-systems based on Event-B and the Rodin platform. We present a general framework for modelling P systems using Event-B, which we then use to implement two P-system models in the Rodin platform. For each of the two models, we use the associated Pro-B model checker to verify properties and we present some o...

Formalizing hybrid systems with Event-B and the Rodin Platform

Capability & Potential for Formal Feature-oriented Reuse in Event-B

Context: Event-B is a leading state-based language for formal modelling and verification of systems supported by an extensible Rodin toolkit. Its existing composition techniques provide a starting point for the investigation of capability for reuse via feature-based modelling. We contribute early methodology for formal development of software product lines (SPLs). An SPL is a set of related pro...

Feature Composition – Towards product lines of Event-B models

Event-B is a formal language for modelling reactive systems, based on set theory and first-order logic. The RODIN toolkit provides comprehensive tool support for modelling and refinement in Event-B, analysis and verification using animator/model-checkers and theorem provers. We consider the need to support reuse, in particular product line reuse, in such a formal development method. Feature mod...
