a schema language for coordinating construction and composition of partial behavior descriptions
We report on a schema language for coordinating the construction and composition of partial behavior descriptions. The language is a frontend to the semantical and implementation framework of action machines , which allows to encode behaviors of software artifacts in a language-agnostic manner, supporting both state-based and interaction-based description styles, as well as partial descriptions by means of symbolic representations. Our approach is currently being incorporated into an advanced model-based specification and testing environment at Microsoft Research.
