This monograph on the verification of standards and specifications applied in information technology covers a lesser-researched but vital aspect of standards and specification development methodologies. The book has undertaken a thorough review and study of the application of formal testing methodologies to the verification of standards and specifications and describes in detail how these approaches can improved the quality of computer networking and electronic healthcare. Using the ubiquitous "FireWire" computer device networking standard, the ISO/IEEE 1073 standard for connecting electronic medical devices and the popular "Health Level 7" healthcare data exchange standard as examples, the book demonstrates that rigorous formal verification of the standards and specifications can uncover previously unknown flaws and shortcomings, so enabling improvements in computer networking and medical care. This book fills a gap in the research and application of standards and specifications methods and is recommended to anyone undertaking development work in this area.
