As long as the players move in independent parts of the net, they do not know of each other; when they synchronize at a joint transition, each player gets informed of the causal history of the other player. We show that for Petri games with a single environment player and an arbitrary bounded number of system players, deciding the existence of a safety strategy for the system players is EXPTIME-complete.}

abstract = {Dynamically typed object-oriented languages enable programmers to write elegant, reusable and extensible programs. However, with the current methodology for program verification, the absence of static type information creates significant overhead. Our proposal is two-fold: First, we propose a layer of abstraction hiding the complexity of dynamic typing when provided with sufficient type information. Since this essentially creates the illusion of verifying a statically-typed program, the effort required is equivalent to the statically-typed case. Second, we show how the required type information can be efficiently derived for all type-safe programs by integrating a type inference algorithm into Hoare logic, yielding a semi-automatic procedure allowing the user to focus on those typing problems really requiring his attention. While applying type inference to dynamically typed programs is a well-established method by now, our approach complements conventional soft typing systems by offering formal proof as a third option besides modifying the program (static typing) and accepting the presence of runtime type errors (dynamic typing).},

We use standard theory for controller synthesis to derive the dynamic behavior of a lane-change controller. Thereby, we contrast the setting of interleaving semantics and synchronous concurrent semantics. We also consider the possibility of exchanging knowledge between neighboring cars in order to come up with the right decisions.},

abstract = {We consider (un)decidability of Multi-Lane Spatial Logic (MLSL), a multi-dimensional modal logic introduced for reasoning about traffic manoeuvres. MLSL with length measurement has been shown to be undecidable. However, the proof relies on exact values. This raises the question whether the logic remains undecidable when we consider robust satisfiability, i.e. when values are known only approximately. Our main result is that robust satisfiability of MLSL is undecidable. Furthermore, we prove that even MLSL without length measurement is undecidable. In both cases we reduce the intersection emptiness of two context-free languages to the respective satisfiability problem. This is the full version of a paper with the same title published at the ICTAC 2015.},

abstract = {Dynamically typed languages enable programmers to write elegant, reusable and extendable programs. Recently, some progress has been made regarding their verification. However, the user is currently required to manually show the absence of type errors, a tedious task usually involving large amounts of repetitive work. As most dynamically typed programs only occasionally divert from what would also be possible in statically typed languages, properly designed type inference algorithms should be able to supply the missing type information in most cases. We propose integrating a certified type inference algorithm into an interactive verification environment in order to a) provide a layer of abstraction, allowing the users to verify their programs like in a statically typed language whenever possible and b) use verification results to improve type inference and thus allow type checking of difficult cases.},

On the theoretical side, we prove that every instantiation of the functions (that satisfies some requirements) still yields a decision procedure for coverability. On the practical side, we show that known optimizations like partial order reduction and pruning can be formulated in our framework. We also give a novel acceleration based instantiation. For well-known classes of WSTS's (PN, PN+Transfer, LCS), we optimize the selection function inspired by $A^*$. We implemented our instantiations and comment on the data structures. Extensive experiments show that the new algorithms can compete with a state-of-the-art tool: MIST2.},

abstract = {Component-based software construction relies on suitable models underlying components, and in particular the coordinators which orchestrate component behaviour. Verifying correctness and safety of such systems amounts to model checking the underlying system model. The model checking techniques not only need to be correct (since system sizes increase), but also scalable and efficient. In this paper, we present a SAT-based approach for bounded model checking of Timed Constraint Automata, which permits true concurrency in the timed orchestration of components. We present an embedding of bounded model checking into propositional logic with linear arithmetic. We define a product that is linear in the size of the system, and in this way overcome the state explosion problem to deal with larger systems. To further improve model checking performance, we show how to embed our approach into an extension of counterexample guided abstraction refinement with Craig interpolants. },

The assistance system implements an autonomous lane change manoeuvre conducted in cooperation with other communicating agents. The model implements a layered design for traffic agents where aspects of communication and autonomous control are described as real-time and hybrid systems, respectively, which are intertwined by synchronous message passing. },

abstract = { Specifications and implementations of complex physical systems tend to differ as low level effects such as sampling are often ignored when high level models are created. Thus, the low level models are often not exact refinements of the high level specification. However, they are similar to those. To bridge the gap between those models, we study robust simulation relations for hybrid systems. We identify a family of robust simulation relations that allow for certain bounded deviations in the behavior of a system specification and its implementation in both values of the system variables and timings. We show that for this relaxed version of simulation a broad class of logical properties is preserved. The question whether two systems are in simulation relation can be reduced to a reach avoid problem for hybrid games. We provide a sufficient condition under which a winning strategy for these games exists.}

This is ultimately a hybrid veri cation problem due to the continuous dynamics of the cars. We abstract from the dynamics by introducing a new spatial interval logic based on the view of each car. To guarantee safety, we present two variants of a lane-change controller, one with perfect knowledge of the safety envelopes of neighbouring cars and one which takes only the size of the neighbouring cars into account. Based on these controllers we provide a local safety proof for unboundedly many cars by showing that at any moment the reserved space of each car is disjoint from the reserved space of any other car. }

abstract = { We propose a technique for verification of mobile systems. We translate \emph{finite control processes,} which are a well-known subset of \picalc, into Petri nets, which are subsequently used for model checking. This translation always yields bounded Petri nets with a small bound, and we develop a technique for computing a non-trivial bound by static analysis. Moreover, we introduce the notion of \emph{safe processes,} which are a subset of finite control processes, for which our translation yields safe Petri nets, and show that every finite control process can be translated into a safe one of at most quadratic size. This gives a possibility to translate every finite control process into a safe Petri net, for which efficient unfolding-based verification is possible. Our experiments show that this approach has a significant advantage over other existing tools for verification of mobile systems in terms of memory consumption and runtime. We also demonstrate the applicability of our method on a realistic model of an automated manufacturing system.}

abstract = {We describe how CSP-OZ, a formal method combining the process algebra CSP with the specification language Object-Z, can be integrated into an object-oriented software engineering process employing the UML as a modelling and Java as an implementation language. The benefit of this integration lies in the rigour of the formal method, which improves the precision of the constructed models and opens up the possibility of (1) verifying properties of models in the early design phases, and (2) checking adherence of implementations to models. The envisaged application area of our approach is the design of distributed {\em reactive systems}. To this end, we propose a specific UML {\em profile} for reactive systems. The profile contains facilities for modelling components, their interfaces and interconnections via synchronous/broadcast communication, and the overall architecture of a system. The integration with the formal method proceeds by generating a significant part of the CSP-OZ specification from the initially developed UML model. The formal specification is on the one hand the starting point for {\em verifying} properties of the model, for instance by using the FDR model checker. On the other hand, it is the basis for generating {\em contracts} for the final implementation. Contracts are written in the Java Modeling Language (JML) complemented by \CSPjassda{},
an assertion language for specifying orderings between method invocations. A set of tools for runtime checking can be used to supervise the adherence of the final Java implementation to the generated contracts.},

abstract = { We generalise dynamic logic to a logic for differential-algebraic programs, i.e., discrete programs augmented with first-order differential-algebraic formulas as continuous evolution constraints in addition to first-order discrete jump formulas. These programs characterise interacting discrete and continuous dynamics of hybrid systems elegantly and uniformly. For our logic, we introduce a calculus over real arithmetic with discrete induction and a new \emph{differential induction} with which differential-algebraic programs can be verified by exploiting their differential constraints algebraically without having to solve them. We develop the theory of differential induction and differential refinement and analyse their deductive power. As a case study, we present parametric tangential roundabout maneuvers in air traffic control and prove collision avoidance in our calculus.}

While the reason for the vulnerability primarily lies on the serverside, the actual exploitation is within the victim's web browser on the client-side. Therefore, an operator of a web application has only very limited evidence of XSS issues. In this paper, we propose a passive detection system to identify successful XSS attacks. Based on a prototypical implementation, we examine our approach's accuracy and verify its detection capabilities. We compiled a data-set of 500.000 individual HTTP request/response-pairs from 95 popular web applications for this, in combination with both real word and manually crafted XSS-exploits; our detection approach results in a total of zero false negatives for all tests, while maintaining an excellent false positive rate for more than 80\% of the examined web applications.},

The reduction from GI to $\pi$SC is given explicitly, and the reduction in the opposite direction proceeds by transforming $\pi$SC into an instance of the term equality problem (i.e., the problem of deciding equivalence of two terms in the presence of associative and/or commutative operations and commutative variable-binding quantifiers), which is known to be Karp reducible to GI. Our result is robust in the sense that it holds for several variants of structural congruence and some rather restrictive fragments of $\pi$-Calculus. Furthermore, we address the question of solving $\pi$SC in practice, and describe a number of optimisations exploiting specific features of $\pi$-Calculus terms, which allow one to significantly reduce the size of the resulting graphs that have to be checked for isomorphism.}

With the goal of developing a theoretical and practical foundation for deductive verification of hybrid systems, we introduce a dynamic logic for hybrid programs, which is a program notation for hybrid systems. As a verification technique that is suitable for automation, we introduce a free variable proof calculus with a novel combination of real-valued free variables and Skolemisation for lifting quantifier elimination for real arithmetic to dynamic logic. The calculus is compositional, i.e., it reduces properties of hybrid programs to properties of their parts. Our main result proves that this calculus axiomatises the transition behaviour of hybrid systems completely relative to differential equations. In a case study with cooperating traffic agents of the European Train Control System, we further show that our calculus is well-suited for verifying realistic hybrid systems with parametric system dynamics. }

First, we show that boundedness in depth has an intuitive characterisation when we understand processes as graphs: a process is bounded in depth if and only if the length of the simple paths is bounded. The proof is based on a new normal form for the $\pi$-Calculus called anchored fragments. Using this concept, we then show that processes of bounded depth have well-structured transition systems (WSTS). As a consequence, the termination problem is decidable for this class of processes. The instantiation of the WSTS framework employs a new well-quasi-ordering for processes in $P_{\mathit{BD}}$.}

The existing algorithms provide a limited DC coverage and do not support compositional verification. We propose a translation algorithm that advances the applicability of model checking tools to realistic applications. Our algorithm significantly extends the subset of DC that can be checked automatically. The central part of the algorithm is the automatic decomposition of DC specifications into sub-properties that can be verified independently. The decomposition is based on a novel distributive law for DC. We implemented the algorithm in a tool chain for the automated verification of systems comprising data, communication, and real-time aspects. We applied the tool chain to verify safety properties in an industrial case study from the European Train Control System (ETCS).},

We discuss how properties of high-level specifications of real-time systems combining the dimensions of process behaviour, data, and time can be automatically verified, exploiting recent advances in semantics, constraint-based model checking, and decision procedures for complex data. As specification language we consider CS-OZ-DC, which integrates concepts from Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP), Object-Z (OZ), and Duration Calculus (DC). Our approach to automatic verification of CSP-OZ-DC rests on a compositional semantics of this languages in terms of Phase-Event-Automata. These can be translated into Transition Constraint Systems which serve as an input language of an abstract refinement model checker called ARMC which can handle constraints covering both real-time and infinite data. This is demonstrated by a case study concerning emergency messages in the European Train Control System (ETCS). For CSP-OZ-DC we also discuss a UML profile and tool support. }

abstract = { In this paper we focus on tackling the insecurity problem of security protocols in the presence of an unbounded number of data such as nonces or session keys. First, we pinpoint four open problems in this category. The first two problems concern protocols with natural restrictions that any `realistic' protocol should satisfy while the second two concern protocols with disequality constraints. For protocols with disequality constraints we will prove: (1)~Insecurity is decidable in NEXPTIME when bounding the size of messages and not requiring data to be \emph{freshly} generated. (2)~Insecurity is NEXPTIME-complete when bounding the size of messages and the number of freshly generated data used in honest sessions. This shows that unbounded data can be tackled in settings which do not trivially reduce to the case of bounded data. The second result is in contrast with a recently published proof, which appears to prove the same problem undecidable. We will point out why this proof cannot be considered to be valid. },

We provide theoretical results relating CSP-OZ specifications and security automata and show how refinement can be used to reason about specifications of security automata and their combination with target systems. Through a case study, we provide evidence for the practical usefulness of this approach. This includes the ability to specify concisely complex operations and complex control, support for structured specifications, refinement, and transformational design, as well as automated, tool-supported analysis. }

abstract = {We extend existing verification methods for CSP-OZ-DC to reason about real-time systems with complex data types and timing parameters. We show that important properties of systems can be encoded in well-behaved logical theories in which hierarchical reasoning is possible. Thus, testing invariants and bounded model checking can be reduced to checking satisfiability of ground formulae over a simple base theory. We illustrate the ideas by means of a simplified version of a case study from the European Train Control System standard.},

abstract = { In the design process of real-time systems, formal verification establishes global properties of high-level specifications while real-time scheduling analysis ensures that concrete realisations meet essential timing properties with respect to a given target platform. But a formal link between these phases is missing. It is unclear (1) whether timing assumptions that are required to verify properties of high-level specifications can actually be realised on a target platform and (2) whether verified properties remain valid for a schedulable task network. Our approach bridges this gap by guaranteeing that properties verified on specification level are preserved on the implementation level, and vice versa, schedulability results can be propagated back to the specification. To this end, we provide a property-preserving translation from a subclass of the high-level real-time language CSP-OZ-DC into Cyclic Timed Automata, a Timed Automata based task network formalism. We apply our method to a case study from the European Train Control System standard. },

abstract = { In this paper, we analyze limits of approximation techniques for (non-linear) continuous image computation in model checking hybrid systems. In particular, we show that even a single step of continuous image computation is not semidecidable numerically even for a very restricted class of functions. Moreover, we show that symbolic insight about derivative bounds provides sufficient additional information for approximation refinement model checking. Finally, we prove that purely numerical algorithms can perform continuous image computation with arbitrarily high probability. Using these results, we analyze the prerequisites for a safe operation of the roundabout maneuver in air traffic collision avoidance. }

Our logic supports verification of hybrid programs with first-order definable flows and provides a uniform treatment of discrete and continuous evolution. For our combined logic, we generalise the semantics of dynamic modalities to refer to hybrid traces instead of final states. Further, we prove that this gives a conservative extension of dynamic logic. On this basis, we provide a modular verification calculus that reduces correctness of temporal behaviour of hybrid systems to non-temporal reasoning. Using this calculus, we analyse safety invariants in a train control system and symbolically synthesise parametric safety constraints. }

With a faithful embedding of bounded model checking for systems of timed automata into propositional logic and linear arithmetic, we achieve both, quick abstraction techniques and a linear-size representation of parallel composition. In this logical setting, we introduce an abstraction that works uniformly for clocks, events, and states. When necessary, abstractions are refined by analysing spurious counterexamples using a promising extension of counterexample-guided abstraction refinement with syntactic information about Craig interpolants. To support generalisations, our overall approach identifies the algebraic and logical principles required for logic-based abstraction refinement. }

In this paper, we present a new model checking procedure for infinite-state concurrent systems that interleaves automatic abstraction refinement, which splits states according to new predicates obtained by Craig interpolation, with slicing, which removes irrelevant states and transitions from the abstraction. The effects of abstraction and slicing complement each other. As the refinement progresses, the increasing accuracy of the abstract model allows for a more precise slice; the resulting smaller representation gives room for additional predicates in the abstraction. The procedure terminates when an error path in the abstraction can be concretized, which proves that the system is erroneous, or when the slice becomes empty, which proves that the system is correct. },

Slicing on the other hand has become an established technique to complement the fight against state space explosion during verification which inherently accompanies increasing system complexity. In this paper, we exploit the special structure of CSP-OZ-DC specifications by extending the dependence graph---which usually serves as a basis for slicing---with several new types of dependencies, including timing dependencies derived from the specification's DC part. Based on this we show how to compute a specification slice and prove correctness of our approach. },

The extraction is carried out in such a way that properties as described by the slicing criterion are preserved, i.e., they hold in the complete program if and only if they hold in the sliced program. During verification, slicing is often employed to reduce the state space of specifications to a size tractable by a model checker. The computation of specification slices relies on the construction of dependence graphs, reflecting (at least) control and data dependencies in specifications. The more dependencies the graph has, the less removal of parts is possible. In this paper we present a technique for optimizing the construction of the dependence graph by using deductive verification techniques. More precisely, we propose a technique for showing that certain control dependencies in the graph can be eliminated. The technique employs small {\em deductive} proofs of the enabledness of certain transitions. Thereby we obtain dependence graphs with less control dependencies and as a consequence smaller specification slices which are an easier target for model checking. },

abstract = { Model checking of real-time systems with respect to Duration Calculus (DC) specifications requires the translation of DC formulae into automata-based semantics. This task is difficult to automate. The existing algorithms provide a limited DC coverage and do not support compositional verification. We propose a translation algorithm that advances the applicability of model checking tools to real world applications. Our algorithm significantly extends the subset of DC that can be handled. It decomposes DC specifications into sub-properties that can be verified independently. The decomposition bases on a novel distributive law for DC. We implemented the algorithm as part of our tool chain for the automated verification of systems comprising data, communication, and real-time aspects. Our translation facilitated a successful application of the tool chain on an industrial case study from the European Train Control System (ETCS). }

abstract = { We introduce a dynamic logic that is enriched by non-rigid functions, i.e., functions that may change their value from state to state (during program execution), and we present a (relatively) complete sequent calculus for this logic. In conjunction with dynamically typed object enumerators, non-rigid functions allow to embed notions of object-orientation in dynamic logic, thereby forming a basis for verification of object-oriented programs. A semantical generalisation of substitutions, called state update, which we add to the logic, constitutes the central technical device for dealing with object aliasing during function modification. With these few extensions, our dynamic logic captures the essential aspects of the complex verification system KeY and, hence, constitutes a foundation for object-oriented verification with the principles of reasoning that underly the successful KeY case studies. }

As intermediate layer we will use a new kind of timed automata that preserve events and data variables of the specification. These automata have a simple operational semantics that is amenable to verification by a constraint-based abstraction-refinement model checker. By means of a case study, a simple elevator parameterised by the number of floors, we show that this approach admits model-checking parameterised and infinite state real-time systems. }

abstract = { Case studies can significantly contribute towards improving the understanding of formalisms and thereby to their applicability in practice. One such case, namely a cascade of the familiar 24-hour timers (in suitably generalized form) provides interesting gedanken experiments and illustrations for presenting, illustrating and comparing various formalisms for modelling real-time behaviour of systems. The timer cascade is first modelled in a general-purpose functional formalism (Funmath) and various properties are derived, including an interesting algebraic monoid structure of timer programs. Then it is described and analyzed in duration calculus, thereby highlighting, similarities and differences in the approach to modelling and reasoning, and also the link between the formalisms. Future work consists in using this case as a running example for exploring the same issues for other formalisms intended for real time and hybrid systems. The underlying idea is that other authors join this effort and contribute towards extending it, finally arriving at a broad comparative survey of such formalisms. }

In this paper we propose a technique for {\em reducing} such specifications (with respect to certain properties under interest) before verification. The method is an adaption of the {\em slicing technique} from program analysis to the area of integrated formal notations and temporal logic properties. It solely operates on the syntactic structure of the specification which is usually significantly smaller than its state space. We show how to build a reduced specification via the construction of a so called program dependence graph, and prove correctness of the technique with respect to a projection relationship between full and reduced specification. The reduction thus preserves all properties formulated in temporal logics which are invariant under stuttering, as for instance LTL$_{-X}$. },

With the increasing system complexity and the accompanying introduction of model-based development techniques in the industrial process, a substantial amount of this knowledge is laid down in the system models. The main focus of the presented techniques and tools is to automatically exploit this knowledge by extracting a fault tree suitable for FaulTree+ directly from a given design modeled in Statemate. The resulting fault tree is complete wrt. the specified failure, i.e. the analysis considers every possible causal failure combination which is guaranteed by applying model checking techniques. Using an aircraft Flap control system this paper shows how to smoothly integrate the technique into an existing model-based process. },

Particularly, this is the case in the area of 'safety critical' systems, where a system failure can endanger human life. But also in less critical areas the correctness of provided functionality becomes more and more important. Furthermore the complexity of system functionality increases steadily. Therefore manual test and simulation methods can detect many errors only with inaccaptable high effort concerning time and resources. Starting from this background, this article presents the basics of 'model checking', an automatic and complete verification method.

The intermediate CSP-OZ specification serves to verify correctness of the UML model, and the assertions control at runtime the adherence of a Java implementation to these formal requirements. We explain this approach using the case study of a ``holonic manufacturing system'' in which coordination of transportation and processing is distributed among stores, machine tools and agents without central control. },

The word ``behaviour'' in this context usually refers to the semantics of methods, typically given by pre- and postconditions. In this paper, we will use this term in a more specific way, referring to the dynamic behaviour of objects in time. Behaviour descriptions of classes give sequencing constraints on method invocations, in this paper formulated using the process algebra CSP. Behavioural subtyping can be seen as a mixture of refinement and inheritance: we expect the subtype to be substitutable for the supertype while at the same moment allowing extension of functionality. Since refinement itself does not allow extension of functionality, a subtyping definition must therefore extend standard refinement concepts to cope with additional methods in the subtype. In this paper, we show for three such subtyping relations how they can, despite these extensions, be checked via refinement. This gives us the possibility of employing standard refinement checkers for CSP (viz. the FDR modelchecker) for subtype checks. },

Often these techniques are applied at the code level -- either by inserting new source code prior to the compilation or by modifying the target code, e.g. Java byte code, before running the program. The \textsf{jassda} framework and tool enable runtime checking of Java programs against a CSP-like specification. For generating events it uses the Java Debug Interface (JDI) and thus no modifications to the code are necessary. Another advantage is that events are generated on demand, i.e. dynamically at runtime it is determined which events to generate for the current debug run without modifying the program itself. This paper shows how this event generation is done by the \textsf{jassda} framework. }

A new trend is to take dynamic behaviour into account when designing such techniques. To bring formal techniques to practical applications one often has to reduce the goal coming down from full verification to runtime checking. \textsf{jassda} is a framework for performing such runtime checks at the byte-code level of Java. The Trace-Checker module of \textsf{jassda} allows one to test the dynamic behaviour of multiple Java virtual machines by monitoring whether the trace of all relevant events is a member of the trace semantics of a given CSP process or not. In this paper we present the CSP dialect that is used to specify a set of allowed traces for Java programs. The underlying semantics allows partial specifications of distributed Java programs and to recombine them while preserving properties. }

Behavioural subtyping is concerned with subtypes for active classes with an explicit dynamic behaviour, specifiable for instance by object-oriented formal methods combining state-based with behavioural formalisms. Such specification languages often have a formal semantics that composes behavioural semantics for both the behaviour and the state-based part. In this paper we develop syntactic patterns and semantic rules for the state-based part of a subclass which guarantee that the subclass is a behavioural subtype of its superclass. This allows to check for subtypes without computing the behavioural semantics of the class at all. Our results are similar to the ones linking data refinement in state-based methods with failure-divergence refinement in CSP. In contrast to classical data refinement, subtyping (and the simulation relations used for showing the soundness of the patterns) have to cope with additional new operations in the subclass. },

Its particular focus lies on system descriptions on the architectural level, defining the overall system structure. In this paper we propose to use UML-RT structure diagrams together with the formal method CSP-OZ combining CSP and Object-Z. While CSP-OZ is used for specifying the system components themselves (by CSP-OZ classes), UML-RT diagrams provide the architecture description. Thus the usual architecture specification in terms of the CSP operators parallel composition, renaming and hiding is replaced by a graphical description. To preserve the formal semantics of CSP-OZ specifications, we develop a translation from UML-RT structure diagrams to CSP. Besides achieving a more easily accessible, graphical architecture modelling for CSP-OZ, we thus also give a semantics to UML-RT structure diagrams. },

We investigate this topic for three behavioural subtyping relations, which formalise the subtype - supertype relationship among classes on the basis of process algebra correctness relations.

abstract = { An automatic manufacturing system serves as a case study for the applicability of an integrated formal method to the specification of software systems. The formal method chosen is CSP-OZ, an integration of the state-oriented formalism Object-Z with the process algebra CSP. The practicability as well as limitations of CSP-OZ are studied. We furthermore employ a graphical notation (class diagrams) from the Unified Modelling Language to describe the architectural view of the system. The correctness of the obtained specification is checked by a translation into the input language of the CSP model checker FDR and a following property check. },

abstract = { In this paper we investigate the object-oriented notion of subtyping in the context of behavioural formalisms. Subtyping in OO-formalisms is closely related to the concept of inheritance. The central issue in the choice of subtyping relations among classes is the principle of substitutability: an instance of the subtype should be usable wherever an instance of the supertype was expected. Depending on the interpretation of ``usable'', we obtain a variety of subtyping relations: stronger subtyping relations, allowing one to share the subtype instance among different clients without any change compared with the supertype, and weaker relations, restricting the possibilities of interference of different clients on the subtype instance. The subtyping relations are taxonomically ordered in a hierarchy. The concept of ``usability'' is formalised via testing scenarios, which provide alternative characterisations for the subtyping relations. },

In this paper we summarise and categorise the different approaches and identify pitfalls and shortcomings in existing combinations. Thereby we give an overview over the many possible answers to the question: `What is the behavioural semantics of a Z specification?' }

Special care is taken to capture the characteristics of input and output parameters properly and to preserve the expected refinement rules. CSP-OZ is well suited for the specification and development of communicating distributed systems. It provides powerful techniques to model data- and control-aspects in a common framework. The language is easy to use for Z and Object-Z users. }

For systems consisting of the parallel composition of subsystems it is complex to check deadlock-freedom because the global state space of the composition has to be investigated. This paper presents an approach by which the absence of deadlocks is preserved during the development. Small initial deadlock-free systems are stepwise extended with new functionalities to large complex systems by transformation rules which preserve deadlock-freedom. Systems are represented by finite automata extended with arbitrary local variables. A verification rule is presented which ensures that the parallel composition of such extended automata is deadlock-free. The advantage of this rule is that only information over pairs of connected subsystems is needed and not over the complete state space. },

abstract = { Multi-user multimedia communication systems allow users at different sites to exchange any kind of information (video, audio and data) in a multipoint call. A typical application area for such systems can be hospitals. Especially the medical area poses strong requirements on the reliability and security of the communication systems and of the application software. This paper presents an approach how formal methods can help to meet these requirements. The first part of this paper gives a short introduction to a set of standards for multipoint communications recently proposed by the ITU-T (International Telecommunications Union - Telecommunications Standardization Sector). Only parts of these standards contain formal specifications while others contain only informal textual descriptions. The second part begins with the development of a simple formal specification of a multi-user multimedia communication system based on these standards. We start by collecting informal requirements for conference handling as the basic functionality of the system aimed at. These requirements are formalized and a specification is developed for which we prove that it is in accordance with the requirements. It is then explained how new functionality can be added with an incremental development technique. This technique supports that unchanged requirements remain valid in the new system. Stepwise employing of this technique leads from our initial specification to more enhanced and complete formal specifications. In the end we sketch how the final specification can be used for the development of new applications for multi-user multimedia communication systems. These applications are realized on top of a system with proven properties and therefore we can guarantee their correctness. Work presented in this paper is done as part of the project CoCoN (Provably Correct Communication Networks) that is carried out in cooperation between the Philips Research Laboratories in Aachen and the University of Oldenburg. }

Throughout this paper our approach is exemplified by a case study how call handling software for telecommunication switching systems should be developed. }

Following a transformational approach the design needs interactive user help when important design decisions have to be made. Nevertheless simple parts should be automated as far as possible. Ideally the user only guides the design process by indicating the design ideas which are then carried out automatically. Typically sequential implementations are more appropriate for automation while parallelization needs interaction to determine the intended program architecture.\bibpar This paper presents a transformational approach to the design of distributed systems where environment and concurrently running components communicate via synchronous message passing along directed channels. System specifications that combine trace-based with state-based reasoning are gradually modified by application of transfromation rules until Occam-like programs are achieved finally. We consider interactive and automatic aspects of such a design process and illustrate our approach by sketching the development of a shared register implementation. }

abstract = { During the last few years there has been an ever increasing demand for the fast and flexible introduction of value-added services and new features into private as well as into public telecommunications networks. Intelligent networks (IN), personal communications, computer-supported telecommunications applications (CSTA) are just a few areas from which these services are emerging. Adding more and more services to the telecommunications network leads to a situation where not only the software part of the separate network components but also the structure of the network is becoming increasingly complex. Today, it is already difficult to maintain and to extend the systems. It becomes more and more harder to understand and to predict the behaviour of the system, e.g. in situations when interactions between services occur. Therefore it becomes a key issue to design communications system software that provably not only arguably meets its requirements. Aim of our project is to support a stepwise and verified development of communications systems from the requirement phase over the specification phase to an implementation. The vision that we have in mind is an engineering approach for the development of correct communications networks. Meanwhile theoretical work has reached a point where formal methods seem to be applicable to industrial-size applications. Here we would especially like to mention the ESPRIT Basic Research Project ProCoS (= Provably Correct Systems). This project was started in 1989 and finished in 1992, a follow-up project ProCoS II was initiated 1993. ProCoS is dedicated to cover the entire development process from the capture of the requirements down to the computer programs. ProCoS offers a constructive approach to correctness, that is based on a common mathematical model. Our project CoCoN is closely related to the ProCoS project. The formal methods that have been developed within the ProCoS framework establish the foundation of our approach. In particular, distributed embedded real-time systems are in the scope of ProCoS. Therefore the ProCoS- methods are considered to be directly applicable to problems from the communications area. Call handling for the originating and terminating side in a plain network configuration is used as a consistent example throughout the whole report to describe the principles of our approach. We proceed in the following way: Informal requirements for basic call handling are first identified and then captured in a formal language. In a next step from these formal requirements a specification is developed and it is proved that the resulting specification is correct with respect to the requirements. It is then shown how it is possible to decompose the resulting small switching system specification in order to come to more realistic network configurations. New transformation rules are introduced. These rules enable the stepwise extension of the starting system into a complex but still verified system. }

A suitable solution is the transformational approach where verified semantics-preserving transformation rules are used to come from a first verified specification to the desired system. A problem is that for most industrial applications the system development never terminates because requirements change and new functionalities have to be added to the system. This paper describes a new approach for the development of extensible specifications in small intuitive steps. New transformation rules are introduced that guarantee that intermediate results of development can be used for further steps. }

Both the initial requirements and the subsequent design stages are formulated in trace logic and so every proof of correctness boils down to reasoning about trace predicates. The relation between trace logic and a program language is shown by a transformation from trace logic into a program specification language, called SL. The advantage is that a large set of verified SL-specifications can be automatically transformed into correct OCCAM programs. In contrast to trace logic, SL-specifications describe the process behaviour in more detail. }
