Abstract

Describes the formal verification of the timing properties of the design of an intelligent structural control system using the Concurrency Workbench, an automatic verification tool for finite-state processes. The high-level design of the system is first given in Modechart, a graphical specification language for real-time systems, and then translated into a temporal process algebra supported by the Workbench. The facilities provided by this tool are then used to analyze the system and ultimately show it to be correct
