Abstract: We present a new temporal logic, GTL, appropriate for specifying properties of hardware
at the register transfer level. We argue that this logic represents an improvement over model
checking for some natural hardware verification problems. We show that the validity problem
for this logic is \Pi

1 complete. We then identify a fragment of the logic that is decidable. We
show that in this fragment we are still able to encode many interesting problems, including the
correctness of pipelined... (Update)
