abstract: Klaim is an experimental programming language that supports a programming paradigm where both processes and data can be moved across different computing environments. The language relies on the use of explicit localities. This paper presents a temporal logic for specifying properties of Klaim programs. The logic is inspired by Hennessy-Milner Logic (HML) and the μ-calculus, but has novel features that permit dealing with state properties and impact of actions and movements over the different sites. The logic is equipped with a complete proof system that enables one to prove properties of mobile systems.
