  • Conference paper
Book cover 6th Refinement Workshop

Part of the book series: Workshops in Computing ((WORKSHOPS COMP.))

Abstract

Existing “algorithm design” rules, for refining Z specifications to structured high-level language code, are extended with proof obligations that preserve specified real-time, as well as functional, behaviour.
