This is because the implicit “liveliness” of time shifts the spectrum towards the safety side. While, for example, response—that “something good” will happen eventually—is a classical liveness property, bounded response—that “something good” will happen soon, within a certain amount of time—has many characteristics of safety. We account for this phenomenon formally by defining safety and liveness relative to a given condition, such as the progress of time.","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0020-0190"]},"publist_id":"211","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/002001909290005G?via%3Dihub"}],"extern":"1","date_updated":"2022-03-07T11:31:23Z","publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"month":"09","day":"14","quality_controlled":"1","user_id":"ea97e931-d5af-11eb-85d4-e6957dddbf17","_id":"4517","page":"135 - 141"}
