Resumen

Software Engineering is trying to adapt its tools, mechanisms and techniques to cope with the challenges involved when developing BIG DATA software systems. In particular, formal verification in one of the areas that more urgently is required to step in. In this work we introduce two crucial aspects aiming to adapt FVS to cope with BIG Data requirements. For one side, FVS’s parallel algorithm is proved to be sound and correct. For the other side, we developed a compelling empirical validation of our approach, employing a communication protocol relevant in the industrial world within a context of parallel systems, introducing a load-balancer process and comparing several implementations.
