System software standards and interface specifications for the ATLAS/Ada based environment for test (ABET)
James Bryan Graves, R. Brooks · 2002
The ABET standards definition process is discussed, and brief descriptions of how each ABET layer provides services, based on the set of external component standards which are combined into a complete test system definition, are presented. The authors discuss how the ABET package specifications can be supplemented by using the Anna formal specification language. Using Anna formal specifications in ABET implementations will provide the capability to generate self-checking applications that can be debugged or validated for correctness (to ensure reliability) by the Anna tools (e.g., the Anna transformer).>
