Abstract

In this paper we further develop the methodology of temporal logic as an executable imperative language, presented by Moszkowski [Mos86] and Gabbay [Gab87, Gab89] and present a concrete framework, called MetateM for executing (modal and) temporal logics. Our approach is illustrated by the development of an execution mechanism for a prepositional temporal logic and for a restricted first order temporal logic.
