Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB) of duration less than about 2 s, detected by the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) on board the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory have been selected for temporal analysis. These bursts constitute nearly 25% of the total and presumably form a separate class. Several parameters to describe the complexity and rapidity based on the burst temporal structure are derived and their dependence on other temporal and spectral properties are explored. A parameter is derived for each burst to characterize its spectral evolution based on its light curves in 4 energy channels. Bursts detected during April 1991 and March 1993 have been analysed yielding a sample size of 51 bursts. It has been found that the burst complexity is independent of its spectral content. The spectral evolution of short bursts is same as that of longer bursts. Also a systematic search for a coherent emission of γ-rays in short bursts yielded a negative result.
