Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
The formal specification method Z has been outstandingly successful in promoting the industrial use of mathematical modelling of software. Since Z was developed, the popularity of object-oriented programming has blossomed, and the idea of a re-usable software framework containing generalized components has become increasingly important. The purpose of this travel grant application is to enable visits to two Australian institutions where Z and related methods are studied, in order to work on a successor to Z that is more suited to specifying object-oriented and component-based systems.
