Abstract
The need for more flexible and robust models to reason about systems in the presence of conflicting information is becoming more and more relevant in different contexts. This has prompted the introduction of paraconsistent transition systems, where transitions are characterized by two pairs of weights: one representing the evidence that the transition effectively occurs and the other its absence. Such a pair of weights can express scenarios of vagueness and inconsistency. This paper establishes a foundation for a compositional and structured specification approach of paraconsistent transition systems, framed as paraconsistent institution. The proposed methodology follows the stepwise implementation process outlined by Sannella and Tarlecki.
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.
