A Temporal Logic of Robustness

2007
It can be desirable to specify polices that require a system to achieve some outcome even if a certain number of failures occur. This paper proposes a logic, RoCTL*, which extends CTL* with operators from Deontic logic, and a novel operator referred to as "Robustly".

Modular temporal logic

Proceedings. 14th Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (Cat. No. PR00158), 2003
D. Therien and T. Wilke (1996) characterized the Until hierarchy of linear temporal logic in terms of aperiodic monoids. Here, a temporal operator able to count modulo q is introduced. Temporal logic augmented with such operators is found decidable as it is shown to express precisely the solvable regular languages.

The temporal logic of programs

18th Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science (sfcs 1977), 1977
A unified approach to program verification is suggested, which applies to both sequential and parallel programs. The main proof method suggested is that of temporal reasoning in which the time dependence of events is the basic concept. Two formal systems are presented for providing a basis for temporal reasoning. One forms a formalization of the method

An Amalgamated Temporal Logic

1993
There are two typical ways to formalize reasoning over time. The first is in a modal logic where time is characterized implicitly through tense operators. The second addresses time explicitly in a first-order theory, where the reasoning is itself essentially first order.

A Reified Temporal Logic

The Computer Journal, 1996
This paper presents a reified temporal logic for representing and reasoning about temporal and non-temporal relationships between non-temporal assertions. A clear syntax and semantics for the logic is formally provided. Three types of predicates, temporal predicates, non-temporal predicates and meta-predicates, are introduced.

Integrating Temporal Logics

2004
In this paper, we study the predicative semantics of different temporal logics and the relationships between them. We use a notation called generic composition to simplify the manipulation of predicates. The modalities of possibility and necessity become generic composition and its inverse of converse respectively.

A review of temporal logics

The Knowledge Engineering Review, 1989
Abstract A series of temporal reasoning tasks are identified which motivate the consideration and application of temporal logics in artificial intelligence. There follows a discussion of the broad issues involved in modelling time and constructing a temporal logic.

On Signal Temporal Logic

2013
Temporal Logic (TL) is a popular formalism, introduced into systems design [Pnu77] as a language for specifying acceptable behaviors of reactive systems. Traditionally, it has been used for formal verification, either by deductive methods [MP95], or algorithmic methods (Model Checking [CGP99,QS82]).

The temporal logic of actions

ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems, 1994
The temporal logic of actions (TLA) is a logic for specifying and reasoning about concurrent systems. Systems and their properties are represented in the same logic, so the assertion that a system meets its specification and the assertion that one system implements another are both expressed by logical implication.

Quantitative Temporal Logic

1999
We define a quantitative Temporal Logic that is based on a simple modality within the framework of Monadic Predicate Logic. Its canonical model is the real line (and not an ω-sequence of some type). We prove its decidability using general theorems from Logic (and not Automata theory). We show that it is as expressive as any alternative suggested in the
