Abstract

Interval-based temporal reasoning naturally arises in a variety of fields, including artificial intelligence (temporal knowledge representation, systems for temporal planning and maintenance, qualitative reasoning, theories of events), theoretical computer science (specification and design of hardware components, concurrent real-time processes), temporal databases (event modeling, temporal aggregation), and computational linguistics (analysis of progressive tenses, semantics and processing of natural languages) [10].
