Design of a System for Anomaly Detection in HAL/S Programs ; CU-CS-151-79
Bristow, Carol Drey, Bryan Edwards, William E. Riddle · CU Scholar (University of Colorado Boulder) · 1979
An approach to the analysis of HAL/S software is discussed. The approach, called anomaly detection, involves the algorithmic derivation of information concerning potential errors and the subsequent, possibly non-algorithmic determination of whether or not the reported anomalies are actual errors. We give detailed designs for algorithms for detecting data-usage and synchronization anomalies and discuss how this technique may be integrated within a general software development support system.
