Abstract

A formalism for the functional specification of time sensitive communicating systems and their components is outlined. The specification method is modular w.r.t. sequential composition, parallel composition, and communication feedback. Nondeterminism is included by underspecification. The application of the specification method to timed communicating functions is demonstrated. The relationship between nondeterminism and timed systems is investigated. Forms of reasoning are considered. The alternating bit protocol is used as a running example.
