This year, the maintenance carried on fixing identified bugs, although an emphasis has been put on correcting usability issues. Indeed, during the meeting in Nice, the WP9 members agreed to refocus on the needed tasks to address some specific bugs and issues reported by DEPLOY partners, and wished resolved by the end of DEPLOY. Thus, no new features were implemented but those appearing in the description of work. The tasks to be performed by the WP9 members were then scheduled, prioritized and regularly updated during the WP9 bi-weekly meetings. The following paragraphs will give an overview of the the work that has been performed concerning maintenance on the existing platform components (i.e. core platform and plug-ins).

Event-B Qualitative Probability plug-in provides supports for reasoning about termination with probability 1 (almost-certain termination).
  
* Core platform maintenance (Thomas Muller)
 
According to the previously mentionned refocus, the maintenance tasks performed on the core plateform basically aimed to overcome Rodin scalability weaknesses, and the continuous need of seamless proving experience. The performance was enhanced by core implementation and user interface refactorings. The proving usability was enhanced by the possibility to customize, combine, and parameterize tactics and the addition of new inference and rewriting rules.

= Motivations =
 
The DEPLOY partners raised issues that appeared mandatory to address by the end of the project. The tasks to solve these issues have been listed and grouped according to their priority. This grouping appears below. The group 1 has the highest priority, the group 2 has an intermediate priority,and the group 3 has the lowest priority. The group 4 concerns topics that could not be ressourced during the lifetime of DEPLOY. Prover Integrity item although not being directly covered, has been partially addressed thanks to Isabelle and SMT integration. Unfortunately, the originally planned export of full proofs and integrity check is beyond the scope of DEPLOY.

== Platform maintenance ==
 
The platform maintenance, as it can be deduced from the above tables, concerned stability and performance improvement. The prover performance improvement will be discussed and detailed in a separate chapter. SYSTEREL found out, from early investigation on performance, a relation of cause and effect between perfomance loss and various reported bugs, such as "platform hanging" bugs or "no more handles" bugs related to Windows platforms.
