We introduce an LTL-like logic with atomic formulae built over a constraint language interpreting variables in Z. The constraint language includes periodicity constraints, comparis...

We introduce a first-order language for semantic underspecification that we call Constraint Language for Lambda-Structures (CLLS). A Astructure can be considered as a A-term up to...
