Message-ID: <978@altos86.UUCP> Date: 31 Mar 89 03:17:36 GMT Sender: dtynan@altos86.UUCP Reply-To: malcolm@CS.UCLA.EDU (Malcolm Lui) Organization: UCLA Computer Science Department Lines: 27 Approved: dtynan@zorba.Tynan.COM Thank you for taking the time to read my posting. For my master's thesis I am considering developing a general purpose environment that allows for the development, execution, and verification of system specifications. I was wondering if you had any suggestions as to what features or constructs you would deem necessary in such an environment? Please forgive me for posting to so many newsgroups. My hope is that by posting to several different groups, I will be able to determine what constructs are needed to implement a general-purpose specification language environ- ment. Please e-mail your ideas. I will post a summary of the responses I get. Thanks again for your time and ideas. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Internet: malcolm@cs.ucla.edu UUCP: ...!{trwspp,cepu, uclachem}!ucla-cs!malcolm ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
