Abstract

This paper introduces a new interval temporal logic, TPL. Existing interval temporal logics, we claim, are inadequate to represent the meanings of certain natural language constructions, despite exhibiting high computational complexity. TPL* overcomes these problems, presents the semantics of some natural language constructions, and captures important real-time problems like behaviour of complex systems.
