Abstract

In this paper, we present a formal object-oriented specification language designed for capturing requirements expressed on composite realtime systems. The specification describes the system as a society of 'agents', each of them being characterised (i) by its responsibility with respect to actions happening in the system and (ii) by its time-varying perception of the behaviour of the other agents. On top of the language, we also suggest some methodological guidance by considering a general strategy based on a progressive assignement cf responsibilities to agents.
