Abstract

This paper describes a method which allows specifiers to specify systems using the standard Oxford style Z specification and then to state critical properties (in this case security) on the whole specification without having to specify another model of the system. It does this by showing how a natural semantics can be explicitly given to Oxford style Z specifications. This allows separation of the differing concerns of modelling the security and functional aspects of a system.
