Abstract :
A formalism is presented for specification and analysis of real-time constraints of systems at run time. Real-time logic (RTL) is employed to illustrate how timing properties can be specified elegantly in the form of annotation added to a program (or to a design specification). The algorithms for detecting a violation of a timing property at runtime, expressed in RTL, are presented.<>
