Abstract

Formal Methods are becoming more an more important for the development of hardware and software systems. Verification tools support the employment of Formal Methods. This paper gives an overview of the design and implementation of the verification tool Truth. We define and explain requirements for verification tools. Furthermore, we discuss several semantic models, specification languages and logics and their visualisation from a tool builder's perspective and show how these requirements were adopted in Truth.
