Abstract
As domain modelling has been identified as a key issue for putting formal specification techniques into engineering practice, two reference case studies were elaborated within the research programme “Integration of Software Specification Techniques for Applications in Engineering”. One of them, coming from the railway transportation control domain and using an example of a radio based level crossing control system, was developed at the Institute of Traffic Safety and Automation Engineering. A physical railway model demonstrator was designed and developed as a means of comparison and validation for the formal specifications coming from partners involved in the research program.
