This paper presents an approach and a tool to increase specification quality by using a combination of UML and formal languages. Our approach is based on the expression of the UML class diagram and its annotations into a Z formal specification. Our tool called RoZ supports this approach by making the transition between the UML world and the Z world: from an annotated class diagram, it automatically generates a complete Z specification, the specifications of some elementary operations and some proof obligations to validate the model constraints. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2000.
