A Strategy to Improve the Reliability of Object-Oriented Formal Models
Guo Wei Xie, Fucai Qian, Xinhong Hei · 2013
Considering the challenges in guaranteeing the reliability of a formal model which is established in according with system requirements specification written in natural language with ambiguities, a novel strategy is proposed to improve the correctness of formal model by separating requirement functions and data structures. Specifically, hybrid automata which can analyze system process symbolically are created to characterize system behaviors before formalization. Secondly, UML models are created to improve the accuracy of system structure. Lastly, an object-oriented formal model is established based on the hybrid automata and UML models.
