Asor presents GS (Guarded Successor), a decidable temporal logic — decidability being the property that matters, since it is what allows a machine to check a specification rather than merely state one.

The context is the Tau Net project’s aim of executable, verifiable specifications. A narrow technical paper whose interest is the ambition behind it: software whose behaviour is proven against a declared spec rather than tested.
