In previous work we have described techniques for consistency checking, refinement, and translation between viewpoint specifications, in particular for LOTOS and Z/Object-Z.
The papers were organized in topical sections named: model checking and refinements; quantitative reasoning; software analysis; lightning talks; interpolation, IC3/PDR, and Invariants; SMT techniques and applications; HW verification; synthesis; termination; and concurrency.
The analysis entailed three iterations of coding, reliability checking and refinement of the coding, and comparisons between codes (as detailed in the results section) (see Table 2 for details).
Because this exploratory research requires an informed but open mind, the framework, including concepts and theories, was further developed in a continuous process of checking and refinement, without adhering to this pre-set framework.
These two parameters serve for the model refinement as they are useful to compare measured and computed values to check and refine the power consumption prediction models.
Our methods were also more iterative and required more judgment than we had originally planned, especially considering our additional sense checking stage and refinements following field testing.
After the MD refinement, the check process was also undertaken.
Hence, in this case, one should actually use a lower threshold value, redo all analyses, and check whether such a refinement allows to find instabilities of the trees and to trace them back to the observed alignment instabilities.
LR-check and disparity refinement is also utilized to improve final disparity.
The compiler checks composition and refinement constraints, performs schedulability and reliability analyses, and generates code for replicated, distributed implementation of the HTL program on a virtual machine.
