We propose a process to bridge the gap between customerrequirements and formal analysis. The process is designed tosupport in-house formalisation and analysis as well as formalisa-tion and analysis as a service provided by a third party. The basicideas are that we obtain dependability and comprehensibility byassuming a senior formal requirements engineer who preparesthe requirements and later interprets the analysis results intandem with the client. We obtain scalability as most of theformalisation and analysis is supposed to be conducted by juniorformal requirements engineers. In this paper, we define and analyse the process and report onexperience from different instantiations, where the process waswell received by customers.","PeriodicalId":251481,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Workshop on Formal Requirements (FORMREQ)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125549599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though testing is the most prominent and widely-adopted means, it cannot prove the absence of software's defects. Therefore, static measures such as formal proofs can complement dynamic methods. However, these techniques require the formal statement of requirements, which is still a challenge in industry development. This paper suggests a way of formalizing requirements in controlled natural language in a way that applies directly to C program code. By mapping natural language terms to conditional breakpoints, requirements can be translated to formal language expressed in observer automata. The creation of a mapping between natural language terms and code is supported by natural language processing methods. Finally, the observer automata are model checked against the code. In our approach we demonstrate the described steps using a set of realistically shaped requirements, which are common in the avionics domain. We implemented a simple tool hiding the abstract and mathematical details, which performs the proofs automatically. The paper is presented as an approach towards the seamless verification of code against requirements typically found in the avionics domain.","PeriodicalId":251481,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Workshop on Formal Requirements (FORMREQ)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121972848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Formal approaches propose precise and unambiguous requirements amendable to automated reasoning. TLA+, for instance, is used by major companies, such as Microsoft and Amazon, to specify high-profile business critical systems. However, despite its undeniable strengths for the specification of complex distributed systems, TLA+ suffers from the duality of its syntax, which hinders its large-scale industrial adoption. A system engineer can easily read mathematical specifications in TLA+, produced through LaTeX. However, for writing TLA+ specifications, he must learn the discommoding ASCII syntax, which requires unnecessary effort and dedicated learning time. This paper introduces SpecEdit, an IDE for TLA+ with a projectional editor that solves this issue. SpecEdit exposes the mathematical syntax of TLA+ for both reading and writing specifications, without requiring external transformations. This approach minimizes the cognitive effort and streamlines the formal system specification process. We illustrate the benefits of our approach using the specification of the Elasticsearch cluster coordination module. We furthermore emphasize the complementarity with the existing TLA+ tools. Through SpecEdit, TLA+ gains the specification editor that was missing without compromising compatibility with the existing tools.","PeriodicalId":251481,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE Workshop on Formal Requirements (FORMREQ)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128441869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
