Abstract

Formal aid in specification and verification techniques have become an accepted approach to achieving reliable software for life-critical real-time systems, in which testing may be impossible or too dangerous, since the real inputs to the systems come from the real world. Modelling, assertion languages, and proof systems are three major components that are employed to accomplish the confidence of safe real-time environments. This paper examines these currently available techniques that are used for safety analysis of real-time systems.
