Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The Vienna Development Method (VDM) is a formal method which supports modeling and analysis of software systems at various levels of abstraction. Case studies have shown that applying VDM, or formal specification in general, in software development processes is the key of realizing high quality software development. However, to derive full benefit from the use of VDM in software development, associative activities such as validating and verifying VDM models are crucial. Since the primary way for verifying a VDM model is testing by specification animation, we aim to utilize the animation feature of VDM to apply model checking techniques. In this paper, we propose an approach to support model checking VDM models by constructing a hybrid verification model combining VDMJ, a VDM interpreter, and SPIN model checker.
