LOTOS (Language Of Temporal Ordering Specification) became an
international standard in 1989, although application of preliminary
versions of the language to communication services and protocols of
the ISO/OSI family dates back to 1984. This history of the use of
LOTOS made it apparent that more advantages than the pure
production of standard reference documents were to be expected from
the use of such formal description techniques. LOTOSphere: Software
Development with LOTOS describes in depth a five year project that
moved LOTOS out of the ISO tower into software engineering
practice. LOTOS became a vehicle for efficient, yet formally based
industrial software specification, design, verification,
implementation and testing. LOTOSphere: Software Development with
LOTOS is divided into six parts. The first introduces the reader to
LOTOS and the project LOTOSphere. The five remaining each treat an
important part of the software development life cycle using LOTOS.
This is the first book to give a comprehensive treatment of the use
of these formal description techniques in a software engineering
environment. It will thus be a valuable reference for researchers
and software developers and can also be used as a text for an
advanced course on the subject.
