Abstract

We are investigating a component-based approach for formal design of distributed systems. In this paper, we introduce the framework we use for specification, composition and communication and we apply it to an example that highlights the different aspects of a compositional design, including top-down and bottom-up phases, proofs of composition, refinement proofs, proofs of program texts, and component reuse.
