Mizar is a proof assistant used for formalization and mechanical verification of mathematics. The main use of Mizar is in the development of the Mizar Mathematical Library (MML), i...
Executable formal speci cation can allow engineers to test (or simulate) the speci ed system on concrete data before the system is implemented. This is beginning to gain acceptance...
