Abstract

Software systems have become increasingly distributed,dynamic and mobile. The complex state and dynamic interfacesof software components and their concurrent interactionsprovide challenging research issues in system specification and design. An effective combination of structured state-based formalism and dynamic action-based calculusmay be a good solution for modeling complex distributedmobile systems. In this paper, we investigate the semanticlinks between Object-Z and 驴 calculus and consequently introducea powerful specification technique PiOZ that bringsthe strengths of the two together. The operational semanticsof PiOZ integrates state transition semantics of Object-Z and 驴-calculus reduction rules. The typing rules of PiOZare developed and reasoning of a system property is presented.
