Abstract :
Assertions are advocated as a means to specify high-level models of a design. Assertions are translated into executable behavioral models ("cando-objects"). The cando-objects reflect the intended non-determinism of assertions as well as the non-determinism caused by the incompleteness of a set of assertions. The approach supports significant design methodological concepts like refinement and compositionality.
