It is commonly recognized that temporal representation and reasoning issues occupy a central position in the areas of artificial intelligence, databases, and theoretical computer science. Temporal concerns permeated research in artificial intelligence from the beginning, as witnessed by the seminal

In 1983, Allen presented an ingenious method for the representation and maintenance of temporal information in the presence of imprecise, uncertain, and relative knowledge about time of occurrence. He introduced 13 relations between his primitive "temporal intervals," providing for the expression of
In this paper we view non-monotonic reasoning as a (special kind of) process. As temporal logic is a common formalism to specify and derive properties of processes, we introduce a variant of temporal logic as a general specification language for reasoning processes. We show that it is possible to ex
We present a formalism, Disjunctive Linear Relations (DLRs), for reasoning about temporal constraints. DLRs subsume most of the formalisms for temporal constraint reasoning proposed in the literature and is therefore computationally expensive. We also present a restricted type of DLRs, Horn DLRs, wh
