Abstract
A growing range of applications use AI and other autonomous agents to perform tasks that raise social, legal, ethical, empathetic, and cultural (SLEEC) concerns. To support a framework for the consideration of these concerns, we introduce SLEEC-TK, a toolkit for specification, validation, and verification of SLEEC requirements. SLEEC-TK is an Eclipse-based environment for defining SLEEC rules in a domain-specific language with a timed process algebraic semantics. SLEEC-TK uses model checking to identify redundant and conflicting rules, and to verify conformance of design models with SLEEC rules. We illustrate the use of SLEEC-TK for an assistive-care robot.
期刊介绍：
Science of Computer Programming is dedicated to the distribution of research results in the areas of software systems development, use and maintenance, including the software aspects of hardware design.
The journal has a wide scope ranging from the many facets of methodological foundations to the details of technical issues andthe aspects of industrial practice.
The subjects of interest to SCP cover the entire spectrum of methods for the entire life cycle of software systems, including
• Requirements, specification, design, validation, verification, coding, testing, maintenance, metrics and renovation of software;
• Design, implementation and evaluation of programming languages;
• Programming environments, development tools, visualisation and animation;
• Management of the development process;
• Human factors in software, software for social interaction, software for social computing;
• Cyber physical systems, and software for the interaction between the physical and the machine;
• Software aspects of infrastructure services, system administration, and network management.
