Abstract

The paper presents an hybrid reasoning system — similarity saturation — for first order linear temporal logic with “next” and “unless”. The most attractive property of the similarity saturation calculus consists in that it allows to build derivations uniformly and constructively both for a finitary complete and finitary incomplete first order linear temporal logic.
