Abstract

LOTOS which is one of the Formal Description Techniques (FDTs) is applied for the formal description of other distributed systems and protocol specification of OSI protocol layers. But LOTOS is difficult to understand and to learn because it is based on the mathematical model. In this paper, for supporting the knowledge acquisition to learners studying basic LOTOS, we suggest a new algorithm that can verify an equivalence relation, find an error location, and correct an error when the error is occurred at another process. Finally, we give an example of a prototype program for an educational support system of Basic LOTOS.
