title = "Early validation of requirements: A case study using formal methods",
abstract = "This paper describes a case study conducted to determine if formal methods could be used to validate system requirements early in the lifecycle at reasonable cost. Several hundred requirements for the mode logic of a typical Flight Guidance System were captured as natural language {"}shall{"} statements. A formal model of the mode logic was written in the RSML-e' language and translated into the NuSMV model checker and the PVS theorem prover using translators developed as part of the project. Each {"}shall{"} statement was manually translated into a NuSMV or PVS property and proven using these tools.",
