Formal Modeling in a Commercial Setting: A Case Study

Abstract: Abstract. This paper describes a case study conducted in collaboration with Nortel to demonstrate the feasibility of applying formal modeling techniques to telecommunication systems. A formal description language, SDL, was chosen by our qualitative CASE tool evaluation to model a multimedia-messaging system described by an 80-page natural language specification. Our model was used to identify errors in the software requirements document and to derive test suites, shadowing the existing development process and … Show more

“…Easterbrook describes the use of lightweight formal methods used selectively on identified problems with the results fed back into the existing process. NASA has used this process successfully in several cases, and a group at Nortel has concluded that selecting the right problem is critical to successful use of formal methods [48].…”
