"440","Rigorous engineering of product-line requirements: a case study in failure management","We consider the failure detection and management function for engine control systems as an application domain where product line engineering is indicated. The need to develop a generic requirement set - for subsequent system instantiation - is complicated by the addition of the high levels of verification demanded by this safety-critical domain, subject to avionics industry standards. We present our case study experience in this area as a candidate method for the engineering, validation and verification of generic requirements using domain engineering and Formal Methods techniques and tools. For a defined class of systems, the case study produces a generic requirement set in UML and an example system instance. Domain analysis and engineering produce a validated model which is integrated with the formal specification/ verification method B by the use of our UML-B profile. The formal verification both of the generic requirement set, and of a simple system instance, is demonstrated using our U2B, ProB and prototype Requirements Manager tools. This work is a demonstrator for a tool-supported method which will be an output of EU project RODINȏotnoteThis work is conducted in the setting of the EU funded research project: IST 511599 RODIN (Rigorous Open Development Environment for Complex Systems) \\texttthttp://rodin.cs.ncl.ac.uk/.. The use of existing and prototype formal verification and support tools is discussed. The method, developed in application to this novel combination of product line, failure management and safety-critical engineering, is evaluated and considered to be applicable to a wide range of domains.","http://deploy-eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/440/","Snook, Colin and Poppleton, Michael and Johnson, Ian","UNSPECIFIED","       <span class=\"person_name\">Snook, Colin</span> and <span class=\"person_name\">Poppleton, Michael</span> and <span class=\"person_name\">Johnson, Ian</span>     (2008)  <a href=\"http://deploy-eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/440/\"><em>Rigorous engineering of product-line requirements: a case study in failure management.</em></a>       Information and Software Technology, 50        (1-2).           pp. 112-129.
