Formal Foundations for Pragmatic Software Engineering Methods

  • Conference paper
Innovationen bei Rechen- und Kommunikationssystemen

Part of the book series: Informatik aktuell ((INFORMAT))

Abstract

Research into methods for the systematic construction of well-structured and adequate software currently comprises two mainly independent fields. Both fields are separate worlds using their own notion and having their own tradition. We will call these separate worlds the formal and the pragmatic world.

This work was partially sponsored by the BMFT through the compound project “KORSO”.
