A Case Study: Implementation of Control Systems Using B-Action Systems

Abstract:

We present a case study where we apply a methodology for formal
derivation and implementation of control systems of industrial size.
We use B Action Systems as our theoretical framework for developing
reliable and correct control systems in a stepwise manner. In the case
study we develop part of a microplate liquid handling workstation
manufactured at Wallac, a division of Perkin Elmer Lifesciences.
Previously, we have concentrated on modelling control systems of
industrial size, but here we focus on their implementation.
