Temporal logic makes it possible to formally describe systems at a higher abstraction level with respect to formal description techniques based on the specification of possible system behaviour. We thus propose the use of temporal logic in a method for comparing formal descriptions written in LOTOS and Estelle in order to guarantee that they are compatible, i.e. that they cannot be used to generate incompatible implementations.

Abstract

Temporal logic makes it possible to formally describe systems at a higher abstraction level with respect to formal description techniques based on the specification of possible system behaviour. We thus propose the use of temporal logic in a method for comparing formal descriptions written in LOTOS and Estelle in order to guarantee that they are compatible, i.e. that they cannot be used to generate incompatible implementations.
