Seminar Announcement



Title: Conformance Testing for Real-Time Systems
Speaker: Dr Rachel Cardell-Oliver
  Department of Computer Science

Date: Tuesday 12th December, 2000
Time: 2.00pm
Venue: Seminar Room 1.24

Abstract

The purpose of conformance testing is to determine whether an implemented computer system satisfies its specification. For a useful class of implementations this can be done by constructing a finite set of test experiments such that,
  1. if the implementation satisfies its specification then all the test experiments will succeed, and, more interestingly,
  2. if the implementation does not satisfy its specification, then at least one of the test experiments will fail.
In this seminar we present a new method for testing whether an implemented real-time system conforms to its Uppaal timed automata specification.
