  Abstract

It is recognized that object-oriented methods and formal and formal methods are two different main streams that will influence on the future direction of software engineering. A merging effort on these two technologies, named a "a formal approach on system specifications using object-oriented methods" emerges rapidly and produces remarkable research results. LOTOS is well-suited to an object-based approach. However, to provide a full object-oriented approach, we need to model generalization (i,e, inheritance and polymorphism). Most authors who have examined this topic have proposed extensions to LOTOS. As an extension of such an effort, this paper proposes a method that generates LOTOS specification from static structure diagrams in UML.
