商品描述
Software programs are formal entities with precise meanings independent of their programmers, so the transition from ideas to programs necessarily involves a formalisation at some point.
The first part of this graduate-level introduction to formal methods develops an understanding of what constitutes formal methods and what their place is in Software Engineering. It also introduces logics as languages to describe reasoning and the process algebra CSP as a language to represent behaviours. The second part offers specification and testing methods for formal development of software, based on the modelling languages CASL and UML. The third part takes the reader into the application domains of normative documents, human machine interfaces, and security. Use of notations and formalisms is uniform throughout the book.
Topics and features:
- Explains foundations, and introduces specification, verification, and testing methods
- Explores various application domains
- Presents realistic and practical examples, illustrating concepts Brings together contributions from highly experienced educators and researchers
- Offers modelling and analysis methods for formal development of software
Suitable for graduate and undergraduate courses in software engineering, this uniquely practical textbook will also be of value to students in informatics, as well as to scientists and practical engineers, who want to learn about or work more effectively with formal theories and methods.

軟體程式是具有精確意義且獨立於程式設計師的正式實體，因此從概念到程式的轉換在某個時刻必然涉及形式化的過程。
這本研究生級的形式方法入門的第一部分，旨在培養對形式方法的理解以及其在軟體工程中的地位。它還介紹了作為描述推理的語言的邏輯，以及作為表示行為的語言的過程代數CSP。第二部分提供了基於建模語言CASL和UML的軟體形式開發的規範和測試方法。第三部分將讀者引入規範文件、人機界面和安全性的應用領域。書中統一使用符號和形式化方法。
主題和特點:
- 解釋基礎知識，介紹規範、驗證和測試方法
- 探索各種應用領域
- 提供實際且實用的例子，以說明概念
- 匯集了經驗豐富的教育者和研究人員的貢獻
- 提供軟體形式開發的建模和分析方法
適合軟體工程的研究生和本科課程，這本獨特實用的教科書也對資訊學的學生以及希望更有效地學習或使用形式理論和方法的科學家和實際工程師有價值。
