The satisfiability of timing constraints that are capable of expressing punctuality in this model, however, is known to be undecidable. We introduce a temporal language that can constrain the time difference between events only with finite, yet arbitrary, precision and show the resulting logic to be EXPSPACE-complete. This result allows us to develop an algorithm for the verification of timing properties of real-time systems with a dense semantics.","lang":"eng"}],"date_published":"1996-01-01T00:00:00Z","oa_version":"None","article_processing_charge":"No","title":"The benefits of relaxing punctuality","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0004-5411"]},"date_created":"2018-12-11T12:09:44Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"intvolume":"        43","page":"116 - 146","issue":"1","day":"01"}
