Propositional description of finite cause-effect structures. (English) Zbl 0658.68032

Cause-effect structures introduced by L. Czaja [Inf. Process. Lett. 26, 313-319 (1988; Zbl 0642.68108)] can be regarded as a model (similar to condition-event Petri nets) of discrete dynamic systems. This paper provides a semantics for cause effect structures in terms of classical propositional calculus, and investigates a possibility of using propositional temporal logic.
