			     ABSTRACT


        The Larch Project is developing tools and techniques
        intended to  aid in  the  productive use  of  formal
        specifications in program development.  A major part
        of the project  is the  development of  a family  of
        specification languages.   Each Larch  specification
        has one component written in a language derived from
        a programming language and another component written
        in  a   language   that  is   programming   language
        independent.  This talk  will present the  rationale
        behind the  Larch  style  of  specification  and  an
        introduction to  the Larch  family of  specification
        languages.
