Abstract

The paper presents how CSP and the associated tool FDR are used to support FMEA of a software intensive system. The paper explains the basic steps of our approach (formal specification, systematic fault identification, fault injection experiments and follow-up) and gives some results related to the application of this method to the industrial case study, a railway signalling system that is presently under development.
