Abstract

During the work with the SDL formal semantics, we had also to formalize the SDL time behavior. The semantics given finally was made such that it was applicable for a more general time model, too. This article analyses some properties of time in general, of time in ASM and of time in SDL. Afterwards a set of time axioms for the properties of SDL are stated as an input for discussion.
