Abstract
A proof of correctness relates two levels of description of a design, proving that, subject to stated constraints, the behaviour of the lower level of description ensures the behaviour specified at the higher level. Parameters to the higher level description are abstractions of the lower level ones, with regard to temporal granularity and data type. The lower level can be considered an implementation of the higher level specification.
