  The Object-Z specification language
Smith G., Kluwer Academic Publishers, Norwell, MA, 2000. 146 pp.  Type: Book (9780792386841)

  Structuring Z specifications with views
Jackson D. ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology 4(4): 365-389, 1995.  Type: Article

Schemas are a good construct for modular decomposition of Z specifications, and constitute one of the keys of Z’s success. Schemas are largely used in examples and case studies, but specifications presented in literature are ...

  Specifying a Safety-Critical Control System in Z
Jacky J. IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering 21(2): 99-106, 1995.  Type: Article

Jacky describes a formal specification, using the Z notation, for a safety-critical control system designed for a medical device. The specification is a formal model for the main features of a family of applications, called a framework...

  Understanding Z: a specification language and its formal semantics
Spivey J., Cambridge University Press, New York, NY, 1988.  Type: Book (9789780521334297)

This book is about the mathematical background of the specification language Z. More than a language, Z is a style of mathematical specification based on a typed set theory. It provides structuring notations for building up large speci...
