Title :
Automated verification of LAN protocols: a case study
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
The COSPAN development method is a state machine based development method that enables stepwise development of protocols. Both specifications and properties are formalised in the same framework. Automated verification is provided for checking properties against specifications as well as for checking consistency of development. The application of COSPAN in the development of a carrier sense multiple access protocol for a single channel wireless LAN is investigated
