title: Patterns for Modelling Time and Consistency in Business Information Systems creator: Bryans, Jeremy W. creator: Fitzgerald, John S. creator: Romanovsky, Alexander creator: Roth, A. subject: Event-B subject: Refinement subject: Business subject: Composition and reuse subject: Resilience subject: Real-time systems description: Maintaining semantic consistency of data is a significant problem in distributed information systems, particularly those on which a business may depend. Our current work aims to use Event-B and the Rodin tools to support the specification and design of such systems in a way that integrates well into existing development processes. This paper presents Event-B patterns that may be used to represent recovery from timebounded inconsistency and illustrates their use in a model derived from industrial applications. publisher: IEEE Computer Society date: 2010 type: Book Section type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf identifier: http://deploy-eprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/207/1/final-iceccs2010.pdf identifier: Bryans, Jeremy W. and Fitzgerald, John S. and Romanovsky, Alexander and Roth, A.
