rCOS

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

rCOS is a relational semantic model and refinement calculus for object-oriented and component-based software development. It was originally developed by He Jifeng, Zhiming Liu and Xiaoshan Li at UNU-IIST. It supports both state-based and event-based modeling and analysis software development.
