Abstract :
Software developers face the problem of adopting a suitable formal method to developing their software. We aim to determine capability level of formal methods in software specification and analysis in four steps. The first step introduces the criteria by which the formal methods assess. The second and third ones deal with categorizing sorts of software and formal methods based on their solution methods. The fourth step determines fitness of some typical formal methods to specification and analysis of each software category.
