Abstract

We present the library Owl (Omega-Words, automata, and LTL) for \(\omega \)-automata and linear temporal logic. It forms a backbone of several translations from LTL to automata and related tools by different authors. We describe the functionality of the library and the recent experience, which has already shown the library is apt for easy prototyping of new tools in this area.
