산업현장에서 복합 실시간 계통(HRTS: Hybrid Real-Time Systems) 개발을 위한 정형기법 사용의 주된 장벽은 인지적 어려움이며 이는 또 다른 위험을 초래할 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위해 HRTS 요구분석과 안전성 분석 시 사용자의 인지적 부담을 줄여줄 수 있는 정성적 요구분석 체계를 제안한다. 이 체계는 요구사항 명세를 위한 정성적 정형기법(QFM: Qualitative Formal Method)과 인과정보에 의한 요구사항 안전성 분석기법(CRSA: Causal Requirements Safety Analysis)으로 구성되어 있다. QFM에서는 인공지능 분야에서 연구된 정성추론 이론을 정형명세에 도입하여 요구사항 설계자와 분석자의 인지적 부담을 줄일 수 있도록 하였다. CRSA는 QFM에서 도출한 HRTS 동작의 인과 정보에 따라 체계적으로 위험 원인을 추적할 수 있도록 하여, 기존 결함 트리 분석(FTA: Fault Tree Analysis) 기법의 단점인 분석자의 주관에 의존하는 문제를 해결한다. 월성 원자력 발전소 자동정지계통(Shutdown System 2) 소프트웨어 요구사항 명세와 안전성 분석에 QFM과 CRSA를 적용하여 그 실효성을 입증하고자 하였다.

Hermann Grassmann classified mathematics and extended the dimension of vector spaces by using dialectics of contrasts. In this paper, we investigate his mathematical idea and its background, and the process of the classification of mathematics. He made a synthetic concept of mathematics based on his idea of 'equal' and 'inequal', 'discrete' and 'indiscrete' mathematics. Also, he showed a creation of new mathematics and a process of generalization using a dialectic of contrast of 'special' and 'general', 'real' and 'formal'. In addition, we examine his unique development in using 'real' and 'formal' in a process of generalization of basis and dimension of a vector space. This research on Grassmann will give meaningful suggestion to an effective teaching and learning of linear algebra.

Checks and tests before putting safety facilities into service as well as the results of these tests are essential, time consuming and may show great variations between each other. Economic constraints and the increasing complexity associated with the development of computerized tools tend to limit the capacity of the classic approval process (manual or automatic). A reduction of the validation cover rate could result in practice. This is not compatible with the French national plan to renew the interlocking systems of the national network. The method and the tool presented in this paper makes it possible to formally validate new computerized systems or evolutions of existing French interlocking systems with real-time functional interpreted Petri nets. The aim of our project is to provide SNCF with a method for the formal validation of French interlocking systems. A formal proof method by assertion, which is applicable to industrial automation equipment such as interlocking systems, and which covers equally the specification and its real software implementation, is presented in this paper. With the proposed method we completely verify that the system follows all safety properties at all times and does not show superfluous conditions: it replaces all the indoor checks (not the outdoor checks). The advantages expected are a significant reduction of testing time and of the related costs, an increase of the test coverage rate, an answer to the new demand of railway infrastructure maintenance engineering to modify and validate computerized interlocking systems. Formal methods mastery by infrastructure engineers are surely a key to prove that more safety is not necessarily more expensive.

Achieving situation awareness is especially challenging for real-time data stream applications because they i) operate on continuous unbounded streams of data, and ii) have inherent realtime requirements. In this paper we showed how formal data stream modeling and analysis can be used to better understand stream behavior, evaluate query costs, and improve application performance. We used MEDAL, a formal specification language based on Petri nets, to model the data stream queries and the quality-of-service management mechanisms of RT-STREAM, a prototype system for data stream management. MEDAL's ability to combine query logic and data admission control in one model allows us to design a single comprehensive model of the system. This model can be used to perform a large set of analyses to help improve the application's performance and quality of service.

Modern art has had a great impact on the concepts and the formal attributes of modern landscape design. This study aimed at examining the origins of modern landscape design languages especially in relation to the influence of find art during the modernist age. The formal reductionism of Cubistic paintings finally lead to the formulation of Geometrical Abstractionism which became the basic formal model for ˝Regular Style˝; one of the representative modern landscape style. This Regular Style is mostly based on the formal structure of ´Grids´, which was developed by many landscape designer like Eckbo, Kley and Halprin. On the other hand, the ´Bio-morphic Form´ originally used in Surrealistic Art became the formal model for ˝Organic Style˝; the other representative modern landscape style, developed mostly by the landscape designers like Church, Burle-Mark and Bye. Thus, ´Grids´ and ´Bio-morphic Form´ became the dual icons of modern art and modern landscape design. Although these modern landscape design styles were ground breaking departure from the conventional formal/informal tradition and expanded possibilities in formal experimentations, They also produced several crucial limitations originated from the scientific reductionism and autonomous aesthetics of modern art, like the physical and cultural discontinuation from surrounding environments and the formal alienation from the real life world, which gave rise to the emergence of post-modern thinking of landscape design.

This paper presents a design experience of a control language for coordination of a multi-robot system. To effectively program job commands, a Petrinet-type Graphical Robot Language(PGRL) is proposed, where some functions, such as concurrency and synchronization, for coordination among tasks can be easily programmed.In our system, the proposed task commands of PGRL are implemented by employing formal model languages, which are composed of three modules, sensory, data handling, and action module. It is expected that by using our proposed PGRL and formal languages, one can easily describe a job or task, and hence can effectively operate a complex real-time and concurrent system. The control system is being implemented by using VME-based 32-bit microprocessor boards for supervisory, each module controller(arm, hand, leg, sensor data processing module) and a real time multi-tasking operating system(VxWorks).

This paper takes issue with the idea of language as a 'serial-time structure' as opposed to the 'real-time event' of speech, an idea entrenched in Chomskyan model of linguistic theory. The discussion centers around the leitmotif question: Is language constructed entirely from a finite set of apriori discrete symbol types, as the 'competence vs performance' dichotomy implies\ulcorner A set of linguistic patterns examined in this study, largely with regard to phonological considerations, points to the evidence to the contrary. That is, while the patterns may be said to be linguistically distinct, they are not discretely, different, i.e. not different enough to be reliably differentiated. It is demonstrated that much of current research in phonology, including the most recent Optimality Theory, is misdirected in that it falsely presupposes a discrete universal phonetic inventory. The main thrust of the present study is that there is no sharp boundary between 'competence' defined as the formal, symbolic, discrete time domain of language and human cognition on the one hand and 'performance' as the continuous, fuzzy, real-time domain of human physiology on the other.

This paper presents a formalism-based methodology and its implemented environment which constitutes a sound framework for real-time systems development. The software and/or hardware systems developed in such a formal manner are well structured and maintainable. We first propose a set-theoretic VSSS (Variable Structure System Specification) formalism. This formalism is the core of the presented methodology which supports a means of formal specification for real-time systems. We then develop the environment, including VSSS language definition, a translator for the language, and supporting libraries for real-time execution. Finally, a demonstration of the methodology in development of a real-time event manager, a subsystem of an ATM-based communication system, shows the correctness and efficiency of the methodology.

Currently, Programmable Logic Contorller(PLC) uses Real Time Operation System(RTOS) as basic OS. RTOS executes defined results as to defined time. General features of RTOS emphasize the priority in each task, high-speed process of external interrupt, task scheduling, synchronization in task, the limitation of memory capacity. For safety critical placement, PLC software needs Verification and Validation(V&V). For example, nuclear power plant. In this paper, PLC RTOS is verified by formal methods. Particularly, formal method V&V uses verification tool called 'STATEMATE', and shows the results.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서 분산된 실시간 시스템의 행위와 공간, 시간 속성을 분석하고, 검증하기 위한 다양한 정형기법들이 존재한다. 그러나 대부분의 경우 공간과 행위를 같이 표현하는 구조적, 근본적 한계가 존재한다. 게다가 시간 속성이 포함되는 경우는 더욱 복잡해지게 된다. 이러한 한계를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문은 Timed Calculus of Abstract Real-Time Distribution, Mobility and Interaction(t-CARDMI)라는 새로운 정형기법을 제안한다. t-CARDMI는 행위의 표현으로부터 공간정보의 표현을 분리시켜 복잡도를 단순화 시키며, 시간 속성에 대해서 오직 행위적 표현에서만 허용하여 복잡한 명세를 덜 복잡하게 표현한다. t-CARDMI는 대기기간, 실행시작 만족시간, 실행시간, 실행완료 만족시간 등의 특유의 시간속성을 이동과 통신의 행위에서 모두 포함하는 특징을 갖는다. 새롭게 제안된 Timed Action Graph(TAG)는 공간과 시간을 포함하는 시스템의 명세를 분석하고 검증하기 위해서 공간과 시간속성을 2차원의 다이어그램으로 표현하며 그 안에서 이동과 통신의 정보를 분산된 그림정보로 표현하는 그래프로 t-CARDMI를 좀더 효율적으로 명세하고 분석할 수 있는 방법을 제공한다. t-CARDMI는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅에서의 분산된 실시간 시스템의 공간적, 행위적, 시간적 속성에 대한 명세, 분석 및 검증에 매우 효율적이고 효과적인 혁신적인 정형기법의 하나로 고려될 수 있다. 본 논문은 t-CARDMI의 문법과 의미, TAG 그리고 Specification, Analysis, Verification, and Evaluation (SAVE)로 명명된 툴을 제안하고 유비쿼터스 헬스케어 시스템 예제를 통해 효율성을 분석한다.
