The Sixth Refinement Workshop took place at City University in
London from 5th to 7th January 1994. The present volume includes
all of the papers which were submitted and accepted for
presentation, together with two papers by invited speakers. The
workshops in the series have generally occurred at one year
intervals but in this last case a two year period had elapsed.
These workshops have established themselves as an important event
in the calendar for all those who are interested in progress in the
underlying theory of refinement and in the take-up by industry of
the methods supported by that theory. One of the proposed themes of
the sixth workshop was the reporting of successful adoption in
industry of rigorous software development methods. The programme
committee was perhaps slightly disappointed by the response from
industry to the call in this respect. However, the recent period
could be characterised as one of consolidation, when those
companies which have made the decision that formal development
methods are important to their business have been adopting them
where appropriate and finding them to be worthwhile. On the other
hand, . the difficult economic climate which exists in most parts
of the developed world is perhaps not the context within which
companies still dubious about the benefits are goil'\g to opt for
making major changes in their working practices.
