Abstract :
We are working on the verification of object-oriented design models using a theorem proving system HOL. One of big problems to verify software is that the cost of interactive proofs to be done during the verification is very expensive. To reduce that cost, we are proposing an approach which allows us to reuse proofs and construct models evolutionally. We focus on evolutionary construction of the models and propose foundations to deal with it.
