Abstract

Modal logics are an important tool in the analysis, specification and verification of reactive systems [12]. Among many other applications, logics like HML have been used as a benchmark for semantic equivalences [9], as the specification language used in model checking tools [1], and as a language in which to explain why two systems are not semantically equivalent [11].
