[comp.specification] Tools for Distributed Systems

dendorfe@Informatik.TU-Muenchen.DE (Claus Dendorfer) (02/26/91)

We are looking for a survey on tools for the formal 
specification, verification and design of distributed
systems. 

For example, we are thinking of:

 - mechanized proof support systems
 - rapid prototyping tools
 - tools that are based on automata theoretic concepts
   (e.g. used in protocol specification)
 - structured editors and specification support systems

We are not fixed on a particular formalism. All help
would greatly be appreciated.
