Abstract :
The author presents the theoretical foundations for a differential logic, describes an instance of such a logic and a theory for diagnosis using this formalism, and illustrates the application of the theory with an example from digital logic. This approach is modularized to separate the equations describing the program or system logic, the individual component behavior, and the observation of actual behavior so that computation can be optimized
