- the dynamic semantics;
- conformity for specifications and tools.
It does not specify:
- the proof obligations;
- the reification rules;
- the size or complexity of a specification that will exceed the capacity of any specific data processing system or the capacity of a particular tool, nor the actions to be taken when the corresponding limits are exceeded;
- the minimal requirements of a data processing system that is capable of supporting an implementation of a tool;
- the method that tools use for reporting errors.
