'''rCOS''' stands for refinement of [[Object (philosophy)|object]] and [[Software component|component]] systems. It is a formal method [[component-based]] [[model-driven software]] development. It was originally developed by [[He Jifeng]], [[Liu Zhiming (computer scientist)|Zhiming Liu]] and [[Xiaoshan Li]] at [[UNU-IIST]], and consists of a unified multi-view modeling notation with a theory of relational semantic and graph-based operational semantics, a refinement calculus and tool support for model construction, model analysis and verification, and [[model transformation]]s. Model transformations automate refinement rules and design patterns and generate conditions as proof obligations. rCOS support multiple dimensional modeling: models at different levels of abstraction related by refinement relations, hierarchy of compositions of components, and models of different views of the system ([[interaction protocol]]s of components, reactive behaviors of components, data functionality, and class structures and data types). Components are composed and integrated based on their models of interfaces to support third party composition. For details, please visit <ref>http://rcos.iist.unu.edu/ .</ref>
