Abstract:
Major steps of the design of distributed applications
correspond to the integration of predefined patterns. To support such design
steps, a concept for refinement by pattern composition is introduced which
applies formal process composition and provides functions for the tool
assisted construction and modification of specifications. The approach is
based on L. Lamport's Temporal Logic of Actions TLA and the related theory of
refinement mappings and system composition.
