Algebraic specification [1][2][3] is a specific approach to the formal specification, prototyping, and general development of computer programs.
Overview
As an area of applied mathematics and computer science, Algebraic Specification (AS) addresses these concerns[1]:
- design of algebraic specification formalisms;
- application of algebraic specification techniques to the definition programming languages;
- generation of testable or executable prototypes from specifications.
Although there is also a branch of this topic which is more concentrated on theoretical computer than applications, the latter are the focus of this article.
