Refinement of Concurrent Object-Oriented Programs

  • Chapter
Formal Methods and Object Technology

Abstract

FOOPS is a concurrent object oriented specification language having an executable subset [Goguen and Meseguer, 1987, Rapanotti and Socorro, 1992]. It includes a functional language derived from OBJ [Goguen and Winkler, 1988], which is a first order, purely functional language providing an algebraic style for the specification, rapid prototyping, and implementation of abstract data types. OBJ also supports the declaration of “loose” theory specifications as well as “tight” executable specifications.
