User:Son at ETH Zurich is in charge of the plug-in.

Introduction

Event-B Qualitative Probability plug-in provides supports for reasoning about termination with probability 1 (almost-certain termination).


Installing and Updating

The plug-in is available through the main Rodin Update Site under Modelling Extension category.

News

  • 23.11.2011: Version 0.2.1 released for Rodin 2.3.*
