Abstract

In this article, we present a scenario‐oriented modeling methodology dedicated to the analysis and the formalization of complex system specifications. The methodology relies on the SCOLA semiformal notation to describe scenarios and on a formal execution model described in the AltaRica 3.0 modeling language. We designed this methodology because we had to review thousands of pages of natural language specifications of a railway system in view of their validation with respect to safety constraints. We needed therefore some means to understand what the system was supposed to be and to do as well as to support a dialog with experts. This article aims at introducing the methodology and the modeling formalism that supports it as well as at discussing its application to the railway systems.
