Abstract

We describe a way to make the static analysis for the inthe-large part of the Common Algebraic Specification Language (CASL) independent of the underlying logic that is used for specification in-the-small. The logic here is formalized as an institution with some extra components. Following the institution independent semantics of CASL in-the-large, we thus get an institution independent static analysis for CASL in-the-large. With this, it is possible to re-use the CASL static analysis for extensions of CASL, or even completely different logics. One only has to provide a static analysis for specifications in-the-small for the given logic. This then can be plugged into the generic static analysis for CASL in-the-large.
