About this book
- data refinement and its application to Z;
- generalisations of refinement that change the interface and atomicity of operations;
- refinement in Object-Z;
- and modelling state and behaviour by combining Object-Z with CSP.
Refinement in Z and Object-Z: Foundations and Advanced Applications provides an invaluable overview of recent research for academic and industrial researchers, lecturers teaching formal specification and development, industrial practitioners using formal methods in their work, and postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students.
