Hello,

while there are numerous examples of hardware
specification and verification in HOL, I know
of little in the area of software specification.

since I have not been following HOL to closely
for about a year now, could someone point to
some good examples of this.


In case anyone is wondering, my company is about
to  make a major decision about what formal spec
language to use for a project.  we want theorem prover support,
but it is not mandatory.


any help is appreciated,

mike
