|I'm teaching a course next semester on software specification using Z.  I'm
|looking for case studies.  I am aware of the Hayes book, but it is out of
|print.   I'd appreciate any pointers to readily availble articles
|containing descriptions of systems specified in Z.

Sending the message "send z zbib.tex zbib.bib" to
<archive-server@prg.oxford.ac.uk> will return a comprehensive (long *)
list of Z references. BTW, the Hayes book is still available in the UK
the last time I checked.  Try contacting Blackwell's Bookshop, 50 Broad
Street, Oxford (tel +44-865-249111) if you desparately want a copy.
They will send books anywhere in the world.

You might also be interested in the September 1990 issue of IEEE
Software if you haven't already seen it.

PS Would anyone in the US like to set up a Z archive to save on
trans-atlantic traffic? If so, please contact me.

* The Z bibliography is longer than 100Kbytes. For details of shorter
versions (e.g., for UUCP sites), send a message of "index z".
