Abstract
RAISE — Rigorous Approach to Industrial Software Engineering — was first developed in European collaborative projects during 1985-94. Since then a new set of free, open-source, portable tools has been developed, and a range of developments have been carried out. This tutorial introduces the language and method, and demonstrates the range of software life-cycle activities supported by the tools. These include generation of specifications from UML class diagrams, validation and verification of specifications, refinement, prototyping, execution of test cases, mutation testing, generation of documents, proof by means of translation to PVS, and generation of program code in C++ by translation. A comprehensive user guide is also available.
