  • Improvement in the Requirement Specification Using Z Language And
    IMPROVEMENT IN THE REQUIREMENT SPECIFICATION USING Z LANGUAGE AND ITS SUCCESSOR A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of degree of Master of Engineering in Software Engineering Submitted By SATHISH KUMAR MIDDE (Roll No. 800831007) Under the supervision of Mrs. SHIVANI GOEL Assistant Professor DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING THAPAR UNIVERSITY PATIALA – 147004 June 2010 . i ii Abstract Z (pronounced Zed!) is a Formal Specification language that works at a high level of abstraction so that even complex behaviors can be described precisely and concisely, which is also used to specify the functional requirement of the system. A functional specification is a formal document used to describe in details for software developers a product's intended capabilities, appearance, and interactions with users. The Z notation is a strongly typed, mathematical, specification language. It is not an executable notation; it cannot be interpreted or compiled into a running program. The Z notation is a model-based specification language based on set theory and first-order predicate logic. It provides rich data structures and facilities to define operations on them. An abstract Z specification of an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) environment is defined in this thesis. This specification is used to represent the state of the world and the operations defined on it. The Z schemas are written by using Z/Word tool, supports all types of notations which are used in Z language. Then, attempt to ensure that some constraints on this system are not violated. For this, converted the Z specification into an Alloy model that can be put into the Alloy Analyzer for fully automatic analysis.

[Abrial 811 provided the starting point in the development of the Z notation. The syntax for definitions, predicates and terms presented here was developed from Jea.n·Ra.ymond Abrial's paper. The notation has been further developed and described in [Sufrin 86]. The type roles and the semantics oCZ have been described in [Spivey 85]. The commen­ tary in this paper on the mea.ning of the language constructs is an informal description of what is formally described in [Spivey 85].

  • Support for Model Checking Z Specifications Maria Ulfah Siregar
    Support for Model Checking Z Specifications By: Maria Ulfah Siregar A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Engineering Department of Computer Science 20 December 2016 Abstract One of deficiencies in the Z tools is that there is limited support for model checking Z specifications. To build a model checker directly for a Z spec- ification would take considerable effort and time due to the abstraction of the language. Translating inputs of a Z specification into a language that an existing model checker tool accepts is an alternative method. Researchers at the University of Sheffield implemented a translation tool which took a Z specification and translated it into the input for the Symbolic Analysis Labo- ratory (SAL) tool, a framework for combining different tools for abstraction, program analysis, theorem proving and model checking, which they called Z2SAL. In this paper, support for model checking Z specifications is dis- cussed, in which the ability of the existing Z2SAL is extended. This support includes a translation for generic constant and schema calculus. Instead of translating these aspects of the Z language into the SAL language as Z2SAL does, a Z specification containing these two notations will be pre-processed, in which a generic constant definition will be redefined to its equivalent ax- iomatic definition, and schema calculus will be expanded to a new schema definition. This paper discusses the implementation of these types of sup- port, and illustration of some working examples. The discussion also includes other several issues related to a new approach in translating Z functions and constants in SAL language, which originates from the type incompatibility obtained during execution by the SAL tool, an approach to a SAL transla- tion of embedded theorems on Z specifications, and a manual experiment on applying an abstraction on Z specifications.

Most of those included are readily available, either as books or in journals. A few unpublished items have been included, where they are particularly relevant and can be obtained reasonably easily. Some references are accompanied by an annotation. This may include a contents list (of a book), a list of the titles of Z related papers (in a collection) with cross references to the full details, or a summary of the work. 2 Cross references The bibliography in the last section lists all references in alphabetical order by author. In this section papers are arranged by subject (with authors and brief details of the subject matter), together with cross references to the full details in the bibliography. 2.1 Management, style, and method For justifications for using formality, and quick introductions to Z, see: [63, 199] Cohen/McDermid.

  • Process and Progress of Requirement Formalization in Software Engineering
    Ingeniare. Revista chilena de ingeniería, vol. 28 Nº 3, 2020, pp. 411-423 Process and progress of requirement formalization in Software Engineering Proceso y progreso de la formalización de requisitos en Ingeniería del Software Edgar Serna M.1* Alexei Serna A.1 Recibido 26 de febrero de 2019, aceptado 26 de marzo de 2019 Received: February 26, 2019 Accepted: March 26, 2019 ABSTRACT Since the middle of the last century was initiated the research in formal methods and was presented proposals and methodologies to apply them in software development. The idea was overcome the diagnosed software crisis through the materialization of the life cycle of this product development. In this article is presented the results of a revision of the literature, about progress and develop the requirement formalization. The conclusion is that both are slow: there is not enough interest in the industry, the academy does not train in formal methods, and there is no sponsorship for this research field, professionals fear mathematics and traditional methodologies of software engineering are still the most used in development teams. Due to the quality efficiency, software security and reliability, it is necessary to reactivate the research and experimentation with all the formal methods, because the hope is that mathematics will be the toll with which the crisis promulgated in the 60s is overcome. Keywords: Formal methods, requirement engineering, software quality, formal language. RESUMEN Desde mediados del siglo pasado se inició la investigación en métodos formales y se presentaron propuestas y metodologías para aplicarlos en el desarrollo de software. La idea era superar la diagnosticada crisis del software mediante la matematización del ciclo de vida del desarrollo de este producto.

Formal specification is a better way to identifying specification errors and describing specification in unambiguous ways. Formal specification is a specification written in a formal language where a formal language is either based on rigorous mathematical model or simply on standardized programming or specification language. Formal specification language expressed the specification in a language whose vocabulary syntax and semantic are properly defined. Formal specification language provides mathematical representation of the system. In this paper I will introduce three formal specification languages such as Z, VDM, and B and perform comparison among to them.

Brucker 1 ETH Z¨urich Burkhart Wolff 2 Albert-Ludwigs-Universit¨atFreiburg Abstract CVS is a widely known version management system, which can be used for the dis- tributed development of software as well as its distribution from a central database. In this paper, we provide an outline of a formal security analysis of a CVS-Server architecture performed in [1]. The analysis is based on an abstract architecture (enforcing a role-based access control on the repository), which is refined to an im- plementation architecture (based on the usual discretionary access control provided by the POSIX environment). Both architectures serve as framework to formulate access control and confidentiality properties. Both the abstract as well as the concrete architecture are specified in the language Z. Based on a logical embedding of Z into Isabelle/HOL, we provide formal, machine- checked proofs for consistency properties of the specification, for the correctness of the refinement, and for some security properties. Thus, we present a case study for the security analysis of realistic models over an off-the-shelf system by formal machine-checked proofs.
