  • Towards a Time Model for Circus
    Towards a Time Model for Circus Adnan Sherif and He Jifeng ∗ The United Nations University, International Institute for Software Technology, Casa Silva Mendes, Est. do Engenheiro Trigo No. 4, P.O Box 3058, Macau Tel.:+853 - 712.930, Fax: +853 - 712.940 [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. In this work we propose a time model for Circus. The model is an extension to the model proposed by the unifying theories of pro- gramming and used by Circus. We take a subset of Circus and study its semantics in the new model. We create an abstraction function that maps the timed model to the original model. The main objective of this mapping is to create a relation between the two models. This allows the exploration of some properties of the timed semantics in the untimed model. We study a toy example to illustrate the use of this mapping. 1 Introduction Real time systems have always been a strong candidate for formal develop- ment methods. This fact rises due to the complexity and, usually, critical nature of these systems. The development of formal specification languages, and the adaptation of existing languages with time expressing capacity, was and still is a challenging task. Many languages such as DC [1], and RTL [4] are based on temporal logic and are powerful for expressing timed functionalities. Timed CSP [8] is an extension to the well known CSP [9]. Reed and Roscoe have developed several semantic models for the language [8]. Lately the combination of different languages and techniques have been adapted to obtain formalisms that can be used in a wider range of applications.

  • Spreading Excellence
    IST-004527 ARTIST2 NoE Year 3 JPASE: Joint Programme of Activities for D3-Mgt-Y3 Spreading Excellence IST-004527 ARTIST2 Network of Excellence on Embedded Systems Design Spreading Excellence Artist2 Technical Coordinator: Bruno Bouyssounouse (Verimag) with inputs from all NoE participants The visibility of the ARTIST2 research effort in embedded systems design is worldwide. This is progressively creating a European embedded systems design community, and spreading the “artist culture” in all major research institutions. To ensure that the next generation of researchers will continue in this direction we, as a consortium, devote a great deal of effort to Spreading Excellence, in both academic and industrial circles. Furthermore, through our links with both core and affiliated partners, we are actively setting up permanents links between industry and public research, leveraging on existing partner collaborations with major industrial players in the area. This document shows that ARTIST2 has a strategic impact on the integration of multiple academic research communities, which are necessary to establish the new area of embedded systems design. 1 / 126 IST-004527 ARTIST2 NoE Year 3 JPASE: Joint Programme of Activities for D3-Mgt-Y3 Spreading Excellence Table of Contents 1.

    UNU-IIST International Institute for Software Technology UNU-IIST Annual Report 2004 Chris George and Wendy Hoi Iok Wa March 2005 UNU-IIST Report No. 314 A UNU-IIST and UNU-IIST Reports UNU-IIST (United Nations University International Institute for Software Technology) is a Research and Training Centre of the United Nations University (UNU). It is based in Macau, and was founded in 1991. It started operations in July 1992. UNU-IIST is jointly funded by the Governor of Macau and the governments of the People’s Republic of China and Portugal through a contribution to the UNU Endownment Fund. As well as providing two-thirds of the endownment fund, the Macau authorities also supply UNU-IIST with its office premises and furniture and subsidise fellow accommodation. The mission of UNU-IIST is to assist developing countries in the application and development of software technology. UNU-IIST contributes through its programmatic activities: 1. Advanced development projects, in which software techniques supported by tools are applied, 2. Research projects, in which new techniques for software development are investigated, 3. Curriculum development projects, in which courses of software technology for universities in devel- oping countries are developed, 4. University development projects, which complement the curriculum development projects by aiming to strengthen all aspects of computer science teaching in universities in developing countries, 5. Schools and Courses, which typically teach advanced software development techniques, 6. Events, in which conferences and workshops are organised or supported by UNU-IIST, and 7. Dissemination, in which UNU-IIST regularly distributes to developing countries information on international progress of software technology.

  • New Results and Trends in Formal Techniques & Tools for the Development of Software for Transportation Systems — a Review1
    NEW RESULTS AND TRENDS IN FORMAL TECHNIQUES & TOOLS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOFTWARE FOR TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS — A REVIEW1 Dines Bjørner Computer Science and Engineering, Informatics and Mathematical Modelling Technical University of Denmark, DK–2800 Kgs.Lyngby, Denmark E–Mail: [email protected], URL: www.imm.dtu.dk/˜db Abstract: We characterise what is meant by a metod in the context of software devel- opment. Then what is meant by a formal technique. We refute the possibility of formal methods, but express the desirability of formal techniques. Some such techniques are briefly surveyed. We will outline what has been done recently and what is currently being done using formal techniques in the area predominantly of railway systems. Problems are out- lined, as are avenues for future research. Being an invited survey, the paper features an extensive, albeit far from complete, literature reference list of almost 180 entries, taking up half the paper size ! There are no examples of formal techniques being actually shown in this paper — but there should be at least three papers (Pˇeniˇcka et al., 2003; Strupchanska et al., 2003; Haxthausen and Peleska, 2003b) in these proceedings which illustrate such techniques as are the subject of the current review. Keywords: Formal Method, Domain Description, Requirements Prescription, Software Design, Provable Correctness, Safety Criticality, Real–time, Embedded Systems, Interlock- ing 1. INTRODUCTION 1.2 Sub–System Interfaces Transportation systems pose extraordinary challenge when it comes to their monitor- Thus the challenge is compounded by the ing and control by combinations of classical possibility, when using computers, of com- automatic control systems and digital com- bining many diverse “sub-systems”, sub– puters.

This paper presents a theory of testing that integrates into Hoare and He’s Unifying Theory of Programming (UTP). We give test cases a denotational semantics by viewing them as specification predicates. This reformulation of test cases allows for relating test cases via refinement to specifications and programs. Having such a refinement order that integrates test cases, we develop a testing theory for fault-based testing.
