A Decision Procedure and Complete Axiomatization of Finite Interval Temporal Logic with Projection

摘要

This paper presents a complete axiomatization for propositional interval temporal logic (PITL) with projection. The axiomatization is based on a tableau decision procedure for the logic, which in turn is founded upon a normal form for PITL formluae. The construction of the axiomatization provides a general mechanism for generating axiomatizations thus: given a normal form for a new connective, axioms can be generated for the connective from the tableau construction using that normal form. The paper concludes with a discussion of aspects of compositionality for PITL with projection.
