Abstract
In recent years, the number of Android smartphones increase dramatically and new applications are added numerously in Google store. Android developers usually have to deal with the difficulties such as limited capacity battery, screen design, and limited resources. Among them, specifying graphical user interfaces (GUI) of an application is one of the most important issues. This paper presents a new method to analyze GUI specifications of an Android application. We employ Event-B formal method and its refinement mechanism to formalize the specifications and to check if the constraints are satisfied. A running example of a Note application is given to illustrate the proposed method in detail.
