ERROR DETECTION IN CONTROL FLOW OF EVENT-DRIVEN STATE BASED APPLICATIONS
G. PINTÉR, István Majzik · Series on software engineering and knowledge engineering · 2007
This chapter presents two runtime error detection techniques for UML 2.0 statechart implementations. The first technique aims at detecting errors caused by model refinement faults (introduced in early phases of the development) by proposing a temporal logic language to be used for defining and checking temporal correctness criteria on statecharts. The second solution is a watchdog structure aiming at detection of errors caused by implementation faults. The solutions can detect a subset of errors emerging from operational fault as well.
