Appendix D

The Discrete Event Calculus with Branching Time

Abstract In this appendix, we present BDEC, a branching time version of the discrete event calculus. We characterize the relationship between BDEC and the linear discrete event calculus, and between BDEC and a simple version of the situation calculus.

In this appendix, we present BDEC, a branching time version of the discrete event calculus.1 We characterize the relationship between BDEC and the linear discrete event calculus, and between BDEC and a simple version of the situation calculus.

D.1 LDEC

We start by defining LDEC, a version of the linear discrete event calculus, which facilitates comparison ...
