The existing literature currently available to students and
researchers is very general, covering only the formal techniques of
static analysis.
This book presents real examples of the formal techniques called
‘abstract interpretation’ currently being used in various
industrial fields: railway, aeronautics, space, automotive,
etc.
The purpose of this book is to present students and researchers,
in a single book, with the wealth of experience of people who are
intrinsically involved in the realization and evaluation of
software-based safety critical systems. As the authors are people
currently working within the industry, the usual problems of
confidentiality, which can occur with other books, is not an issue
and so makes it possible to supply new useful information (photos,
architectural plans, real examples).
