Lessons from Using Basic LOTOS Experience Report
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe three case studies in the use of Basic LOTOS. The studies cover design recovery, requirements speci cation, and design activities. We also report lessons learned from the studies. Early lessons suggested changes to the syntax of the language used, and the need for some speci c analysis tools. The last case study reports some of the results of these changes.

Specifying Properties of Basic LOTOS Processes Using Temporal Logic
Temporal logic can be used to describe desirable properties of a system in a more abstract, less constructive, manner than when using process algebra alone. This is a well researched area for other process algebras, but not so for LOTOS. This paper is an initial attempt to fill that gap by investigating the use of the modal -calculus with Basic LOTOS, laying the groundwork for current work on F...
متن کاملUsing LOTOS for specifying the CHORUS distributed operating system kernel
The goal of the work presented in this paper was to test the adequacy of LOTOS for the specification of operating systems, by specifying the basic structures and functionalities of the distributed operating system CHORUSּV3. The paper focusses on the discussion of the issues encountered during the development of the specification, rather than on the specification itself. Three successive approac...

متن کاملThe Lotos Model of a Fault Protected System and its Verification Using a Petri Net Based Approach
Having introduced a novel Petri net based method for the verification of Lotes specifications [Barb 90a], this paper demonstrates its practical interest. Contrary to other similar Petri net based techniques, our approach avoids to build the whole Petri net from the Lotos specification before verification. In contrast to finite automata based methods, our method can analyse Lotos systems with un...
متن کاملLOTOS enhancement to specify time constraint among non-adjacent actions using first order logic
In this paper, we propose a language LOTOS/T, which is an enhancement of Basic LOTOS. LOTOS/T enables us to describe time constraints in formulas of 1st-order predicate logic. The user only describes the logical relation of time at which each action must be executed. Use of equality (=) and inequality ( ) as the time constraints enables us to describe intervals, timeout and delay easily. We de ...
