Abstract	This paper presents an approach to specification, refinement and verification of object-based systems in a temporal logic framework. The behaviour of an objectbased system is viewed as derivable from the behaviours of its constituent component objects. Temporal logic is a formalism well suited for specifying behaviour of concurrent systems; it also provides conceptually simple notions of composition and refinement: Composition of objects is expressed as conjunction of the associated component specifications. The refinement relation between a low-level and a high-level specification requires that the former specification implies the latter. Specifically in an object-based approach, systems and their components need to be viewed as open systems: Each object guarantees some service (behaviour), provided its environment conforms to certain assumptions. Hence, such components are most appropriately specified in an assumption/guarantee style. The approach presented here adopts TLA as the und...
