Case Study of Formal and Informal Specifications through an Industrial

Case Study about Formal and Informal Specifications through an Industrial

Abstract: In this paper, we discuss a case study in which we have taken a problem from industry and specified it both in B and UML. The object of our case study is the teletext module of a new generation TV. We have discussed our experience, and presented an analysis of both the specifications. We found that, in order to specify a real-time event-driven system, some amount of formality is necessary, which UML does not usually provide. Our industrial collaborators are considering changing their specification process basedon our findings.

Case Study on Formal and Informal

Introduction: In this paper, we perform a comparative study of formal specifications and informal specifications. We have taken a medium size system from a project in industry, and have specified it both formally and informally. For the formal specification, we used B [Abr 96] as the specification language, and for the informal specification, we used UML [Boo 99]. Our most important conclusion is that UML is not sufficient to specify requirements, which may be complex and rigorous in nature. Some amount of formality is necessary to take care of particularly complex issues. Conversely we found that the UML was helpful for visualising the structure of the models compared with a formal specification. keep reading..

Case Study on Branding, Business Ethics and Success: Gringo Ltd

Background: Gringo’s short-term aims are to clothe Mozambican youth. Its long-term ambitions are to be a socially responsible company, leading by example to inspire a new generation of young people in Mozambique through innovative education and training programs, while enhancing the existing entrepreneurial climate in the country and striving to eradicate both hunger and poverty.



Case Study on Branding, Business Ethics and Success: Gringo Ltd

Branding: The beginning for Gringo was particularly challenging. The company was founded in a country without an established manufacturing or entrepreneurial history, and where raw materials were sparse and infrastructure dilapidated. Mozambique, however, has plentiful, often untapped human resources. Gringo’s first steps were therefore crucial, and they were: to establish a firm corporate brand identity and company structure; to identify its core market; and, to begin creating and procuring products.

Case Study for Camera Crew

Lights, Camera, Action!

Video can of course be stored digitally and then compressed and sent over the Internet, but this requires a camera operator to have a PC along with him to transmit the data. This will also usually involve the camera being connected to the computer, causing downtime where the operator is not filming. For live broadcasts this isn’t practical, especially when the news camera operator needs to keep rolling.

Case Study for Camera Crew

The new generation of cameras and industrial 3G cellular routers are the solution. The latest Sony professional cameras are capable of recording in parallel, writing one version to the internal disc media and a second copy onto a USB flash drive plugged in near the handle.

Case Study of Iincinerators in Disguise

From California to Asia and beyond, communities are facing an unprecedented onslaught of proposals from waste treatment companies and entrepreneurs promoting a new generation of incineration technologies. Not since the waste industry tried to site hundreds of hazardous and solid waste incinerators in the United States in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s has there been such an intense effort to site new waste treatment facilities.



Case Study of Iincinerators in Disguise

Today, many dozens of companies are promoting technologies such as pyrolysis, gasification, plasma arc, and catalytic cracking as a way to allegedly eliminate and “recycle” all types of waste into energy. Many of these companies falsely and boldly claim their technology is “pollution-free” and has “no emissions.” Aware of the public’s opposition to incineration, the companies promoting these technologies all claim these are not incinerators but are a “green” alternative to incineration.
