Abstract

The transition from the requirements phase to the formal specification phase is one of the most painful steps in software development. Up to now, no well-defined process to build initial formal models has been proposed. We have proposed a method in which initial formal models are built incrementally, driven by a goal-based approach. This paper aims at sharing the salient points of our experience to specify a localization component. We discuss the benefit of using a goal-based modeling to obtain an abstract Event-B specification.
