A Generalized Formal Framework for Partial Modeling
[chapter]
2015
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this paper, we introduce a new language-independent formal framework for partial modeling called GMAVO that generalizes MAVO by providing the means for addressing model semantics and allowing uncertainty ...
We then show that GMAVO is sufficiently general to express Modal Transition Systems (MTSs) -an established "semantics-aware" partial behavioral modeling formalism. ...
In this paper, we have addressed this gap by proposing a general formal framework for partial modeling languages using Category Theory, called GMAVO . ...

Towards Classification of Lightweight Formal Methods
2018
Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Evaluation of Novel Approaches to Software Engineering
The use of lightweight formal methods (LFM) for the development of industrial applications has become a major trend. ...
Further, we propose a simple framework that should help to classify different LFM approaches and to estimate which of them are most cost-effective for a certain software engineering project. ...
