Abstract 
Current approaches to analysis of formal specifications require experts for their application. The goal of this work is to make formal analysis methods more accessible to non-experts. This requires a means of systematically mapping formal specifications into operational models for automated analysis; integrating components specified in different notations; and returning results at the level of abstraction of the specification. This goal can be accomplished using explicit operational semantics.
