title: Augmenting formal development with use case reasoning creator: Iliasov, Alexei subject: Event-B subject: Methodology subject: Tool developments subject: Model construction subject: Rodin plug-ins description: State-based methods for correct-by-construction software development rely on a combination of safety constraints and refinement obligations to demonstrate design correctness. One prominent challenge, especially in an industrial setting, is ensuring that a design is adequate: requirements compliant and fit for purpose. The paper presents a technique for augmenting state-based, refinement-driven formal developments with reasoning about use case scenarios; in particular, it discusses a way for the derivation of formal verification conditions from a high-level, diagrammatic language of use cases, and the methodological role of use cases in a formal modelling process. publisher: Springer date: 2012 type: Book Section type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://deploy-eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/372/1/AE-final-2012-main.pdf identifier: Iliasov, Alexei (2012) Augmenting formal development with use case reasoning.
