Abstract
The VDM-compiler is able to process a subset of the VDM specification language as described in the BSI Proto Standard [PS91]. The compilation includes parsing, check of context conditions and code generation. The target language is an intermediate tree language [SC83, VO83] for which different code generation modules exist. Thus the VDM-compiler can produce code for various machines.
