Abstract Implementation of Algebraic Specifications in a Temporal Logic Language

A formal technique for incorporating two specification paradigms is presented,in which an algebraic specifi- cation is implemented by a set of abstract procedures specified in pre- and post-condition style.The link be- tween the two level specifications is provided via a translation from terms of algebraic specifications into tempo- ral logic formulae representing abstract programs.In terms of translation,a criterion for an abstract implementation satisfying its specification is given,which allows one to ch…
