Abstract
We present a novel inheritance mechanism for a specification language. This mechanism supports stepwise refinement by combining constraints that can be inherited from several sources. Inheritance in specifications differs from inheritance in programming languages. The proposed mechanism has been designed specifically to support computer-aided requirements analysis. The main design issues for the mechanism are explained, and the application of the mechanism to requirements analysis is illustrated via examples.
