Paperback. Formal specification is the name given to the use of discrete mathematics in computer science for describing the function of both hardware and software systems. Poor specification often gives rise to severe problems in software and hardware installation. This textbook is an introduction to both the theory and practice of formal specification, and this new edition includes two new chapters on Z, one giving a number of small examples in Z, the other covering designand Z. Prerequisites in this edition have been kept to a minimum since Professor Ince is at pains to develop the techniques of requirement analysis and discrete mathematics that are needed. Throughoutthe book are numerous worked examples and exercises which include many real examples of software and computer systems. A second edition of the textbook originally published in 1988. It is an introduction to the theory and practice of formal specification. The new edition meets criticisms of the first by concentrating more on Z, including two completely new chapters on small Z examples and design in Z.
