To support this method, the authors plan to develop a specification simulation tool, a trace simulator, that symbolically interprets trace assertions of trace specifications and simulates the externally observable behavior of the modules specified. They first present the trace assertion method. Then trace rewriting systems are formally defined, and it is shown that trace rewriting, a technique similar to term rewriting, can be applied to implement trace simulation. >Read More
