An Interpreter for Framed Tempura and Its Application

This paper discusses the implementation mechanism and its application of an interpreter for a framed temporal logic programming language called framed tempura. Firstly, the basic approach based on the normal form is presented. Then, the structure of the interpreter is illustrated and each of its modules is explained. The work flow of the reduction of programs is given in detail. In particular, the implementation approaches of several important new constructs including frame, await, projection, pointer are presented. As an application, the interpreter is used as a simulator of service models of OWL-S for the Web service composition.
