Abstract

The challenge for system specification is how to visually and precisely capture static, dynamic and real-time system properties in a highly structured way.Timed Communicating Object-Z (TCOZ) is an integrated formal notation that build on Object-Z's strengths in modeling complex data structures,and on Timed CSP's strengths in modeling real-time interactions.In this paper, we demonstrate approaches of using XML/XSL as a transformation tool to visualize TCOZ models into various UML diagrams and to animate TCOZ specifications with a multi-paradigm programming language -Oz.
