Abstract

In this paper we define the logic GCSRL (generalised continuous stochastic reward logic) that
provides means to reason about systems that have states which sojourn times are either greater
zero, in which case this sojourn time is exponentially distributed (tangible states),
or zero (vanishing states).
In case of generalised stochastic Petri nets (GSPNs) and stochastic process algebras it
turned out that these vanishing states can be very useful when it comes to define system
behaviour.
In the same way these states are useful for defining system properties using stochastic
logics.
We extend both the semantic model and the semantics of CSRL such that
it allows to attach impulse rewards to transitions emanating from vanishing states.
We show by means of a small example how model checking GCSRL formulae works.
