It's not an "execution semantics". Instead, there has to *exist* a finite sequence of rule applications, which leads from the LHS to the RHS (or an upper graph of the RHS). "Entailment" might be not the right term here, because it is probably more typically used in the context of model-theoretic semantics. I prefer to speak about "derivations". >-Alan Cheers, Michael -- Dipl.-Inform. Michael Schneider FZI Forschungszentrum Informatik Karlsruhe Abtl.
