Abstract
We report on a case study conducted at DASSAULT ELECTRONIQUE in order to assess the benefits of introducing formal specification and validation in an industrial context, using the IS0 Standard VDM Specification Language (VDMSL) and a commercial toolset marketed by IFAD. The case study is based on a typical example from the terrestrial transportation domain, the door management system of a metro. It focuses on the suitability of the VDM technology for the early software development phases before detailed design, when requirements may be unstable and customer feedback is essential. Particular focus is put on the consistency-checking, animation and early prototyping facilities of the IFAD VDM tools.
