Abstract:

In this paper we shall introduce a simple temporal logic suitable for reasoning about the temporal aspects of parallel universes, parallel processes, distributed systems or multiple agents. We will use a variant of the mosaic method to prove decidability of this logic. We also present an axiomatization for this logic but show that it does not have the finite model property. This shows that the mosaic method is sometimes a stronger way of establishing decidability.
