Talk:Main Page

Main page a bit terse ?

Hello,

I wonder if this page doesn't look a bit terse, knowing it is the main landing page for the event-b wiki. Perhaps should we add some introduction material about Rodin and deploy as well as some other materials... I give a try hereafter. Feel free to correct or modify both the layout and the content.

Proposal

Event-B and Rodin Documentation Wiki

This is the documentation wiki for the Event-b.org site providing documentation for users and developers of the Rodin toolset.

Event-B is a formal method for system-level modelling and analysis. Key features of Event-B are the use of set theory as a modelling notation, the use of refinement to represent systems at different abstraction levels and the use of mathematical proof to verify consistency between refinement levels.

The Rodin Platform is an Eclipse-based IDE for Event-B that provides effective support for refinement and mathematical proof. The platform is open source, contributes to the Eclipse framework and is further extendable with plugins.
