Formal Methods for Distributed Processing (Hardcover)

Descripción

Hardcover. This book presents the current state of the art in the application of formal methods to object based distributed systems. A major theme of the book is how to formally handle the new requirements arising from OO distributed systems, such as dynamic reconfiguration, encapsulation, subtyping, inheritance, and real-time aspects. These may be supported either by enhancing existing notations, such as UML, LOTOS, SDL and Z, or by defining new notations, such as Actors, Pi-calculus and Ambients. The major specification notations and modelling techniques are introduced and compared by leading researchers. The book also includes a description of approaches to the specification of non-functional requirements, and a discussion of security issues. Researchers and practitioners in software design, object-oriented computing, distributed systems, and telecommunications systems will gain an appreciation of the relationships between the major areas of concerns and learn how the use of object-oriented based formal methods provides workable solutions. This collection of comprehensive surveys by leading researchers presents the current state of the art in the application of formal methods to object based distributed systems, including sections on dynamic reconfiguration, encapsulation, subtyping, inheritance, and real-time aspects.
