Abstract
This thesis proposes a CASE tool ACASE which is an integration of different techniques for the formal modeling and simulation of Active Networks. Active networks, proposed by DARPA, have revolutionized the traditional view of networks from a passive carrier of data into a more of a computational engine. Usage of formal methods for the specification and verification of such systems offers a high level of modular abstraction and early design error detection. Simulations also aid in the examination of complicated network scenarios and help shape a better understanding on systems that would, otherwise, prove very difficult to analyze. However the implementation of formal methods is hard even for experienced users especially in complex applications, thus, trends in rendering formal methods more transparent are presently emerging. This thesis offers a solution by offering a new and extensive tool that combines the ActiveSPEC formal specification framework and the ANSE simulation engine. ACASE isa high-level graphical user interface for the development (services, policies and protocols) and simulation of active networks.
