Rodin Workshop 2018

The 7th Rodin workshop will be collocated with the ABZ 2018 Conference

THE PROGRAMME FOR THE WORKSHOP IS PUBLISHED ON THE MAIN CONFERENCE WEBSITE https://www.southampton.ac.uk/abz2018/participants/programme.page

Event-B is a formal method for system-level modelling and analysis. The Rodin Platform is an Eclipse-based toolset for Event-B that provides effective support for modelling and tool-assisted reasoning, in particular, automated proof. The platform is open source and can be extended with plug-ins. A range of plug-ins are available that can be installed via the built-in extensions mechanism of Eclipse.

The purpose of this workshop is to bring together existing and potential users and developers of the Rodin toolset and to foster a broader community of Rodin users and developers. For Rodin users the workshop provides an opportunity to share tool experiences and to gain an understanding of on-going tool developments. For plug-in developers the workshop will provide an opportunity to showcase their tools and to achieve better coordination of tool development effort.
