Title Supporting the length of formal development: From diagrams to VDM to B to C
Contributors
Abstract This paper reports on the experiences gained in the MaFMeth project which is undertaking a formal development with tool support for several parts of the life cycle from requirements capture through to C code generation. A number of issues arise from the limitations of different notations and tools and from their combination when applied to the development of software components destined to be integrated into a broader system context. We describe the problems we encountered, the mistakes we made, and the solutions we adopted, for the benefit of both those applying formal methods to real product development, and for the creators and designers of methods and tools.
