Industrial Projects and Research Projects using Event-B
From partners within the Deploy Project
In the Deploy Project several industrial partners are using Event-B and Rodin on deployment projects:
- Bosch are working on a cruise control system
- Siemens Transportation are working on train control and signalling systems
- Space Systems Finland are working on part of the BepiColombo space probe
- SAP are working on analysis of business choreography models
- Systerel are working on railway and aerospace systems
- they are using Event-B to specify models of train controlers and signalling systems
- DIR 41 Case Study - How Event-B Can Improve an Industrial System Specification
- Christophe Metayer and Mathieu Clabaut
- Abstract State Machine, B and Z 2008, Springer Verlag, LNCS 5238

From partners of the Deploy Project
Following Deploy partners are involved in other projects related to using Event-B and Rodin:
- Newcastle University is involved in the UK SafeCap Project on developing modelling techniques and tools for improving railway capacity while ensuring that safety standards are maintained. The project team (Newcastle University, Swansea University, Invensys Rail) works on integrating proof-based reasoning about time in state-based models, exemplified by Event-B and CSP-Prover, and on providing an open tool support for verifying timed systems. SafeCap is supported by EPSRC and RSSB.
From non-Deploy partners
- AeS Group in Brazil are using Event-B and Rodin on Railway related projects:
- Analysis of deadman control for trains
- Analysis of a safety critical hardware verification function (by software)
- Requirements adaptation
- Validation of Formal Specification
- Also, internship positions are open to work in industry applying Formal Methods. Please contact Dinho (agrj@aes.com.br) or Thiago (thiago@aes.com.br) to discuss about ongoing projects
- Steve Wright, Kerstin Eder and Henk Muller are using Event-B at XMOS Ltd in Bristol under a KTS (Grant EP/H500316/1), applying the methods of the MIDAS project to the XCore embedded microprocessor.
