IS-CORE II

The project explores theoretical and methodological foundations of information systems design and specification. The goal is to achieve provably correct systems with a high degree of reusability. To this end, formal methods are being developed that employ object-oriented description techniques. The project encompasses work on theoretical foundations of object concepts and constructions, design and analysis of language features for object-oriented specification languages, formal semantics for such specification languages, and methods for using such languages. The project is organized into five subgroups, namely for Semantic Domains and Concurrency, Configuration and Design Structures, Defaults and Reasoning, Conceptual Modeling, and Software Development Process.
