| Abstract: | The use of COBOL for program verification leads to some special problems enforcing the restriction of a verification system to a small subset of the language. This report describes the language Ass Cobol, a subset of the COBOL standard from 1974. The semantic of this language is given by translations of the language constructs into PASCAL statements. Based on this semantic, a system of Hoare-style inference rules is constructed and its correctness is shown. Two examples demonstrate the complexity of the correctness proofs even of small Ass Cobol programs. |
