VDM '87. VDM - A Formal Method at Work

Erste Untersuchungen der Halswirbelsäule werden stets mit Hilfe von Röntgenaufnahmen durchgeführt, und in den meisten Fällen genügen diese als Grundlage für die Diagnose. Mißbildungen, Tumoren, und noch öfter Traumata, Rheuma und sogar ganz gewöhnliche Nackenschmerzen erfordern eine radiologische Untersuchung der Wirbelsäule. Die Auswertung jedoch ist schwierig. Nimmt man einen Halswirbel in die Hand, so stellt man fest, um welch komplexes Gebilde es sich hierbei handelt. Bei radiologischen Aufnahmen wird die Auswertung noch durch die sich überlappenden Knochenteile, Anhäufungen und die verschiedenen Blickwinkel erschwert. Das Buch von J.-F. Bonneville und F. Cattin stellt eine o...

VDM '91. Formal Software Development Methods. 4th International Symposium of VDM Europe, Noordwijkerhout, The Netherlands, October 21-25, 1991. Proceedings

"The proceedings of the fourth Vienna Development Method Symposium, VDM '91, are published here in two volumes. Previous VDM symposia were held in 1987 (LNCS 252), 1988 (LNCS 328), and 1990 (LNCS 428). The VDM symposia have been organized by the VDM Europe, formed in 1985 as an advisory board sponsored by the Commission of the European Communities. The VDM Europe working group consisted of reasearchers, software engineers, and programmers, all interested in prommoting the industrial usage of formal methods for software development. The fourth VDM symposium presented not only VDM but also a large number of other methods for formal software development. Volume 1 contains the conference contrib...

Proof in VDM: Case Studies

Not so many years ago, it would have been difficult to find more than a handful of examples of the use of formal methods in industry. Today however, the industrial application of formal methods is becoming increasingly common in a variety of application areas, particularly those with a safety, security or financially critical aspects. Furthermore, in situations where a particularly high level of assurance is required, formal proof is broadly accepted as being of value. Perhaps the major benefit of formalisation is that it enables formal symbolic manip ulation of elements of a design and hence can provide developers with a variety of analyses which facilitate the detection of faults. Proof is just one of these possible formal activities, others, such as test case generation and animation, have also been shown to be effective bug finders. Proof can be used for both validation and verifi cation. Validation of a specification can be achieved by proving formal statements conjectured about the required behaviours of the system. Verification of the cor rectness of successive designs can be achieved by proof of a prescribed set of proof obligations generated from the specifications.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Abstract State Machines, B, VDM, and Z, which took place in Pisa, Italy, in June 2012. The 20 full papers presented together with 2 invited talks and 13 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 59 submissions. The ABZ conference series is dedicated to the cross-fertilization of five related state-based and machine-based formal methods: Abstract State Machines (ASM), Alloy, B, VDM, and Z. They share a common conceptual foundation and are widely used in both academia and industry for the design and analysis of hardware and software systems. The main goal of this conference series is to contribute to the integration of these formal methods, clarifying their commonalities and differences to better understand how to combine different approaches for accomplishing the various tasks in modeling, experimental validation and mathematical verification of reliable high-quality hardware/software systems.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Abstract State Machines, B, TLA, VDM and Z, which took place in Toulouse, France, in June 2014. The 13 full papers presented together with 3 invited talks and 19 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 81 submissions. The ABZ conference series is dedicated to the cross-fertilization of six related state-based and machine-based formal methods: Abstract State Machines (ASM), Alloy, B, TLA, VDM and Z.

VDM stands for Vienna Development Method, while Z refers to Zermelo, a mathematician whose name is associated with set theory. VDM Europe, formed around 1985 by the Commission of the European Communities, is a group of industrial and academic software engineers, programmers and scientists interested in model theoretic formal software development methods. The preface compares and contrasts features of VDM and Z. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
