Book Description
Source Code Availability All of the source code found in this volume, and some that is not, is available from the author at a nominal fee. The author is interested in learning of any errors that may be found, though care has been taken in the construction of the modules to minimize these. The author is also interested in other comments, suggestions, recommendations, questions or experiences with the use of these modules. Contact the author through the following address: Modula-2 Software c/o Springer-Verlag 815 De La Vina St. Santa Barbara, CA 93101 As of February 1988, source code is available on 3.5" Macintosh diskettes (800K HFS format) for the TML Modula-2 compiler for MPW and the Mac METH Modula-2 compiler from ETH Ziirich. 1 Specification Requirements for specification of procedure and data abstractions were previously covered in Volume 1, Chapter 2. A summary is provided of the specification for mat used in this book. The format is adapted from that Guttag and Liskov [10] developed for the CLU language. It consists of relatively few constructs, is semi formal by providing a rigorous definition of the syntax and semantics of opera tions, and it provides powerful facilities for defining abstract data types. 1.1 Specification of Procedure Abstractions Specification of a procedure requires a full description of syntax and semantics. Syntax the name of the procedure by name, the name and type of each ar gument or result, and the order in which the arguments and results occur.

ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
Contains explanations of what abstract data types are and how to specify them, and of the connection between abstract data types and program components. The book does assume a knowledge of Modula-2, although some of the difficulties of using opaque types are discussed before they are used.

Fundamentals of Algebraic Specification 2
Author: Hartmut Ehrig
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642612849
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 429
Book Description
Since the early seventies concepts of specification have become central in the whole area of computer science. Especially algebraic specification techniques for abstract data types and software systems have gained considerable importance in recent years. They have not only played a central role in the theory of data type specification, but meanwhile have had a remarkable influence on programming language design, system architectures, arid software tools and environments. The fundamentals of algebraic specification lay a basis for teaching, research, and development in all those fields of computer science where algebraic techniques are the subject or are used with advantage on a conceptual level. Such a basis, however, we do not regard to be a synopsis of all the different approaches and achievements but rather a consistently developed theory. Such a theory should mainly emphasize elaboration of basic concepts from one point of view and, in a rigorous way, reach the state of the art in the field. We understand fundamentals in this context as: 1. Fundamentals in the sense of a carefully motivated introduction to algebraic specification, which is understandable for computer scientists and mathematicians. 2. Fundamentals in the sense of mathematical theories which are the basis for precise definitions, constructions, results, and correctness proofs. 3. Fundamentals in the sense of concepts from computer science, which are introduced on a conceptual level and formalized in mathematical terms.

Real Time Programming 1986
Author: J. Szlanko
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1483298043
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 139
Book Description
The 1986 IFAC/IFIP Workshop on real-time programming represents the 14th meeting of this workshop since it was first organized in 1971. Traditionally a meeting of a small number of experts, the papers presented at this meeting concentrate on the topics of real-time environment and executives, software development tools and languages, and special real-time applications. The continuing progress being made in this field of programming is amply reflected by the papers and should be of interest to anyone wishing to be kept up to date in the field.

Abstraction and Specification in Program Development
Author: Barbara Liskov
Publisher: McGraw-Hill Companies
ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 496
Book Description
Abstraction and Specification in Program Development offers professionals in program design and software engineering a methodology that will enable them to construct programs that are reliable and reasonably easy to understand, modify, and maintain. Good programming involves the systematic mastery of complexity, and this book provides the first unified treatment of the techniques of abstraction and specification, which, the authors argue, are the linchpin of any effective approach to programming. They place particular emphasis on the use of data abstraction to produce highly modular programs. The authors focus on the process of decomposing large program projects into independent modules that can be assigned to independent working groups. They discuss methods of decomposition, the kinds of modules that are most useful in this process, and techniques to increase the likelihood that modules produced can in fact be recombined to solve the original programming problem. There are many examples of abstractions throughout the text, and each chapter ends with pertinent references and exercises. Most of the sample implementations in the book are written in CLU, one of a growing number of languages able to support data abstraction. Sufficient material is included, however, to allow the reader to work in Pascal as well. The material in this book was developed by the authors during a decade of teaching undergraduate, graduate, and professional-level courses. Barbara Liskov, the developer of CLU, is Professor and John Guttag an Associate Professor of Computer Science at MIT. Abstraction and Specification in Program Development is included in the MIT Electrical Engineering and Computer Science series.
