Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

A Projection Temporal Logic is discussed and some of its laws are given. After that, an executable temporal logic programming language, called Framed Tempura, is formalized. A minimal model-based approach for framing in temporal logic programming is presented. Since framing destroys monotonicity, canonical models-used to define the semantics of non-framed programs-are no longer appropriate. To deal with this, a minimal model theory is developed, using which the temporal semantics of framed programs is captured. The existence of a minimal model for a given framed program is demonstrated. A synchronous communication mechanism for concurrent programs is provided by means of the framing technique and minimal model semantics. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
