%T Developement methods and occam %A David M. Gee, Barry P. Worrall, W. D. Henderson %E Janet Edwards %B Proceedings of WoTUG\-14: Occam and the Transputer\-Current Developments %X Existing structured methods for real\-time systems are critically reviewed with respect to their suitability for direct implementation in occam without transformation. All are found to have weaknesses in some respects; consequently new notations are proposed. Use of these within an appropriate tool framework could assist in the automatic generation of occam code.
