This paper describes methods for automatically analyzing formal, state-based requirements
specifications for some aspects of completeness and consistency. The approach uses a low …

A set of CASE tools is described for develo** formal requirements specifications
expressed in the SCR (Software Cost Reduction) tabular notation. The tools include an …

It is demonstrated how model checking can be used to verify safety properties for event-
driven systems. SCR tabular requirements describe required system behavior in a format …

Running compute-intensive or blocking I/O operations in the UI event thread of smartphone
apps can severely degrade responsiveness. Despite the fact that Android supports writing …

A standard demonstration problem in object-oriented programming is the design of an
automobile cruise control. This design exercise demonstrates object-oriented techniques …

The paper describes a class of formal analysis called consistency checking that
mechanically checks requirements specifications, expressed in the SCR tabular notation, for …

Empirical evaluation of software systems in actual usage situations is critical in software
engineering. Prototy**, beta testing, and usability testing are widely used to refine system …

This paper describes methods for automatically analyzing formal, state-based requirements
specifications for completeness and consistency. The approach uses a low-level functional …

We have argued previously that the effectiveness of a verification system derives not only
from the power of its individual features for expression and deduction, but from the extent to …

Model checking is a promising technique for automated verification or refutation of software
systems. Nevertheless, it has not been used widely in practice mainly due to the lack of the …
