Reasoning About Partial Functions in the Formal Development of Programs
Partial functions and operators are used extensively in the formal development of programs and thus development methods have to clarify how to reason about them. There are a numbe...

Formal verification of standards for distance vector routing protocols
We show how to use an interactive theorem prover, HOL, together with a model checker, SPIN, to prove key properties of distance vector routing protocols. We do three case studies: ...

An Internal Agent Architecture Incorporating Standard Reasoning Components and Standards-based Agent Communication
This paper discusses a general architecture for intelligent software agents. It can be used to construct agents that engage in high-level reasoning by employing standard reasoning...

Reasoning about Idealized ALGOL Using Regular Languages
We explain how recent developments in game semantics can be applied to reasoning about equivalence of terms in a non-trivial fragment of Idealized Algol (IA) by expressing sets of ...

Comparing Extended Z with a Heterogeneous Notation for Reasoning about Time and Space
We contrast using a notation extension with using a combination of notations. Specifically, we compare the use of an extended dialect of Z [10] with a combination of Z and predicat...
