Abstract
In [3], Eagle was introduced as a general purpose rule-based temporal logic for specifying run-time monitors. A novel and relatively efficient interpretative trace-checking scheme via stepwise transformation of an Eagle monitoring formula was defined and implemented. However, application in real-world examples has shown efficiency weaknesses, especially those associated with large-scale symbolic formula manipulation. In this paper, after briefly reviewing Eagle, we introduce RuleR, a primitive conditional rule-based system, which we claim can be more efficiently implemented for run-time checking, and into which one can compile various temporal logics used for run-time verification.
