The multi-language environment Synchronie supports the design and formal verification of synchronous reactive systems. It integrates three synchronous languages and also three ways to specify properties: the temporal logic with future operators CTL, the temporal logic with past operators Past TL, and observers, which are particular synchronous programs. It is argued that this multi-language feature provides an answer to two major issues of formal verification: facility of formalizing properties and facility of verifying large systems. The approach is illustrated with the case study of a time-triggered protocol.

Abstract
The multi-language environment Synchronie supports the design and formal verification of synchronous reactive systems. It integrates three synchronous languages and also three ways to specify properties: the temporal logic with future operators CTL, the temporal logic with past operators Past TL, and observers, which are particular synchronous programs. It is argued that this multi-language feature provides an answer to two major issues of formal verification: facility of formalizing properties and facility of verifying large systems. The approach is illustrated with the case study of a time-triggered protocol.I metadati presenti in IRIS UNICA sono rilasciati con licenza Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal, mentre i file delle pubblicazioni sono protetti da diritto d'autore, salvo diversa indicazione.
