Formal methods encompass a wide choice of techniques and tools for the specification,
development, analysis, and verification of software and hardware systems. Formal methods …

Early validation of requirements aims to reduce the need for the high-cost validation testing
and corrective measures at late development stages. This work introduces a systematic …

Current driving functions are continuously improved. As target vision of this development,
the final state of unattended reliable navigation under all possible circumstances is defined …

System requirements specify how a system meets stakeholder needs. They are a partial
definition of the system under design in natural language that may be restricted in syntax …

Most industrial embedded systems requirements are specified in natural language, hence
they can sometimes be ambiguous and error-prone. Moreover, employing an early-stage …

The most popular technique for specification requirements is natural language. The
disadvantage of natural language is ambiguity. Boilerplates are syntactic patterns which limit …

Requirements engineering is both a phase of software development lifecycle and a
subdomain of software engineering. In general,“requirements" is defined as the description …

Abstract System requirements define conditions and capabilities to be met by a system
under design. They are a partial definition in natural language, with inevitable ambiguities …

This paper presents a combination of an ontology and boilerplates, which are requirements
templates for the syntactic structure of individual requirements that try to alleviate the …

Due to the increasing complexity of embedded systems, early detection of
software/hardware errors has become desirable. In this context, effective yet flexible …
