“…Our main contribution in this paper is to introduce CorreComm as a formal hierarchical framework for modeling and verifying communication designs in order to bridge this gap. For instance, in [22], [23], [24], formal models are introduced to study unicast and multicast communication at the chip level as well as to study recovery mechanisms in wireless sensor-actor networks, respectively. With CorreCom, we establish a base communication design, out of which the formal models mentioned above could be derived via refinement in a correct-by-construction manner.…”

The number of communicating components has tremendously increased, both at the chip-level communication as well as in general networks. This leads to an increased complexity in the design of communication infrastructures. In order to rely on such complex communication designs, we need a correspondingly increased verification effort. In this paper we propose a structured framework named CorreComm to alleviate the modeling and verifying of communication designs. We describe the correct-by-construction structure of our framework and demonstrate its applicability as a communication design pattern, by instantiating it to two specific communication models.

“…In order to guarantee the correct behaviour of the agents under these circumstances, we use the Event-B formalism to stepwise develop the hierarchical specification of the agent-based monitoring and reconfiguration scheme. This formalism has already been used to model routing schemes for NoC platforms (Kamali, Petre, Kaisa, & Daneshtalab, 2011). Hence, Event-B constitutes a good basis for the correctby-construction development of NoC systems.…”

Sophisticated applications deployed on multi-core platforms require many resources as well as dynamic monitoring of the platform to provide efficiently and reliably the needed functionality. In this paper, the authors propose an approach to formal modelling with adequate tool support of an agent-based system whose function is to dynamically monitor the state of the multi-core platform and perform reconfiguration procedures under faults. For this purpose, the authors use the Event-B formalism which allows them to stepwise develop correct-by-construction specifications by mathematical proofs. Furthermore, the formalism enables the decomposition of a specification, which makes it possible to implement a well-structured and hierarchical agent-based monitoring system.
