“…In [60], the PVS prover [42] is used for software requirement analysis. The paper describes the formal model of the requirements of a controller used at NASA and focuses on the proof of properties of the requirement model.…”

The aim of this paper is to discuss the potentials, problems and critical factors for the industrial usage of mechanized theorem proving. The approach followed in this paper is somehow unusual. The starting point is the results of an industrial project whose goal was the assessment of the state of the art of provers (and of tools supporting formal methods in general). We describe the project results in terms of evaluation criteria, classification of technologies and tools and critical factors for industrial take-up. We present the results of the assessment in the same spirit, the same kind of analysis and even the same terminology which were used in the presentations and in the deliverables of the project. This should result in a presentation of a "different view" of the problem of technology transfer in theorem proving, that we call the "user's point of view". In this way, we hope to give a new perspective in the discussion of the industrial take-up of the theorem proving technology.

“…However, in spite of the decision procedures and the (built-in) strategies available in PVS, full automation of proofs is in general a critical factor (like in all the others provers). The work described in [60] indeed addresses this problem. The paper proposes a "customized" approach to the automation of proofs.…”

“…Although this technique starts from a product-line point of view, it is not confined to use in a product line setting. We have, e.g., begun applying our technique to NASA's Simplified Aid for EVA Rescue (SAFER) system [Vito (2000)]. Initial results suggest that this technique can help re-engineer existing property specifications for legacy systems to support reuse in future system developments.…”

CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION CHAPTER 2. RELATED WORK 2.1 Software product lines 2.2 Model Checking 2.3 Model checking Software product lines v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to those who have helped me with various aspects of conducting this research and the writing of this thesis. First and foremost, I would like to thank Dr. Robyn R. Lutz for her outstanding guidance, patience and support throughout this research and in the writing of this thesis. Her constant motivation and creative insights have highly encouraged me in conducting this research. I would also like to thank her for providing me with a favorable environment for conducting this research. This research has been possible because of the generous support of many people. Ben Di Vito provided us with the SMV code and CTL specifications for the SAFER case study. The CMU-SMV tool was provided by Carnegie Mellon University. Our lab's collaboration with Avaya Labs Research helped us to think of the research problems and solutions in an industrial setting. Particularly, I would like to thank Dr. David Weiss, Dr.
