Sinopsis

Offering an introduction to formal specification using the "Z" notation, this practical text makes use of a series of case studies, of varying complexity, to illustrate the construction of good specifications in "Z". These case studies serve to describe the most frequently used features of "Z", the relevant discrete mathematics and the various techniques used. The text also includes an introduction to specification validation, theorem proving and refinement. The importance of formal methods within software engineering is stressed throughout and there are a large number of exercises with solutions.
