Abstract
KIV is a tool for formal systems development. It can be employed, e.g., – for the development of safety critical systems from formal requirements specifications to executable code, including the verification of safety requirements and the correctness of implementations, – for semantical foundations of programming languages from a specification of the semantics to a verified compiler, – for building security models and architectural models as they are needed for high level ITSEC [7] or CC [1] evaluations. Special care was (and is) taken to provide strong proof support for all validation and verification tasks. KIV can handle large scale formal models by efficient proof techniques, multi-user support, and an ergonomical user interface. It has been used in a number of industrial pilot applications, but is also useful as an educational tool for formal methods courses. Details on KIV can be found in [9] [10] [11] and under http://www.informatik.uni-ulm.de/pm/kiv/.
