of the current state of affairs. The concept of time appears in many
fields such as philosophy, psychology, linguistics, artificial

restricted our discussion to consider only two points of view, those
of AI and DBMS's. This paper describe and compares the various
approaches for temporal reasoning, and summarizes the differences
between the theoretical and the implementations issues. It also
demonstrates the kind of temporal propositions and discusses their

abstract= " The Integrated Service Delivery System (ISDS) is
a full time delivery system for equipment under DEC maintenance
contracts. A service cycle starts at the customer site as a call for
service. The Customer Support center receives the message and after
diagnosis will recommend a service action to be carried out. The
foundation of the analysis is the accuracy of the historic maintenance
record of the equipment that need the service. That means, the
temporal data is vital for such a process. The recommendation is
approved at the call handling and management center and passed to the
service delivery unit which will actually do the service. At the call
handling center, the service approval is bound to the validity of the
equipment maintenance contract at the time of the call for service was
placed. This check dictates to keep both valid time for contract
checking, and transaction time for call placement checking. The call
for service is based on transaction time, while contracting is based
on valid or real-world time. Since the service and contract ing are
indivisible in ISDS, both valid time and transaction time should be
supported in its databases. Databases that can handle both. " ,

abstract= " A GIS is not just a collection of maps stored in
a computer, but a database that should correctly model a particular
region of the world.~Since the world is changing continuously, GIS
applications require that the data collection to be updated. Every GIS
is, by definition, a database that manages spatial data and includes
facilities to update its data so it continues to reflect the current
situation. But only a GIS that includes time and space in its model of
reality is often called a temporal GIS, which contains the current
information and keeps the data that describe the previous states and
when they were applicable. A temporal GIS must answer
when-and-where-questions, such as: what were the boundaries of New
York City in June, 1908? Where were the forest areas in New England in
1880, or which properties owned John Doe in Baltimore from August 1981
to June 1988. When GISs include time, they can really demonstrate the
enormous advantage of a database that models reality compared to a
conventional collection of printed maps. " ,

information is essential to most applications for many reasons: future
predictio n and planning, observing rules that cause changes in the
world, and analysis and explanation of the present state of the world.
We describe three models for temp oral reasoning applying time-based
approach, namely, the interval-based, the point- based , and the mixed
models, and present their advantages over models based on the
change-based approach. We also present a survey of the literature in
tempora l database management systems DBMS presented from the early
1970Us to 1988, and discuss data models, temporal attributes, temporal
query languages, and physical concepts in DBMS. Finally, we compare
the temporal reasoning models with the DBMS models and present the
major differences in the two fields of interest." ,

seventeen specialists from the fields of GIS and computer science. The
goals were the discussion of of users' requirements of temporal GIS
and identification of the research issues posed by these requirements.
Some results are: - The detection of two paradigms of users'
requirements: one that necessitates a continuous model of time, in
which evolution is based on equations, and another described by a
discrete model in which events are related by mathematical logic. -
The need for including exploratory mechanisms appropriate for searches
in large data sets. - The appropriateness of including views that
reflect a user's need e.g., temporal/spatial aggregation, and rules to
construct the views and to enforce consistency. - The need for the
manipulation of inexact or approximate information, including
provisions for approximate queries, for assessing the quality of data
(i.e., its fitness for use), and for evaluating the error propagation
to derived data. - The necessity of closer communication between GIS
specialists and computer scientists." ,

is emphasizing the relevance of retrieval by contents within databases
of images and image sequences. Matching the inherent visuality of the
information stored in such databases, visual specification by example
provides an effective and natural way to express content-oriented
queries. To support this querying approach, the system must be able to
interpret example scenes reproducing the contents of images and
sequences to be retrieved, and to match them against the actual
contents of the database. In the accomplishment of this task, to avoid
a direct access to raw image data, the system must be provided with an
appropriate description language supporting the representation of the
con- tents of pictorial data. An original language for the symbolic
representation of the contents of image sequences is presented. This
language, referred to as Spatio-temporal Logic, comprises a framework
for the qualitative representation of the contents of image sequences,
which allows for treatment and operation of content structures at a
higher level than pixels or image features. Organization and operation
principles of a prototype system exploiting Spatio-temporal Logic to
support querying by example through visual iconic interaction are
expounded. Index Terms: Image sequence retrieval, visual querying by
example, image sequence symbolic description, symbolic projection,
spatial logic, temporal logic." ,

abstract= "Most of the discussion of time in GIS fits into
the general topic of developing a useful model of geographic data.
Data models, at their most abstract level, describe objects,
relationships, and a system of constraints or axioms. So far, most GIS
research posits universal axioms with a strong geometric basis. Time
is usually spatialized. Models of GIS should develop to include more
than the data, since an operating GIS must be connected to its context
in social, economic and administrative life. While time might be
reasonably represented as an axis in data space, as a technology, GIS
develops in a complex, multi-thread system of events. Understanding
the historical nature of the participants in the GIS can help sort out
the diversity of data models and the inability to develop common
understandings. The logic of historical time, with its multiple
threads, provides a rich source of axiomatic structure for a more
comprehensive model of GIS. A few starting axioms are offered." ,

abstract= "GIS technology and methodology are evolving to
highly sophisticated levels and paradigms dealing with the use and
applications of there advances are more changing, also. Data
structures are one of the more important components undergoing
transformation. In existing standard GIS, data sets are composed of
the two-dimensional x-y spatial (localization) values and one
attribute value (commonly called the z-value). However, as true 3-D
operations become possible (as opposed to pseudo-volumetric display),
the z-value that once was the data magnitude will represent the true
Earth elevation, with the characterization datum super-imposed. It
will be necessary to redesignate the data attribute value--the
suggested term is A-Value. Additionally animated GIS coupled with
sophisticated spatial trend analysis, is making Time a true data
attribute, i.e., a single display incorporating several periods of
time which must be tagged to X-Y-Z-A data rather than as simple map
annotation. This data dimension should be termed the T-Value.
Therefore, near future GIS will employ five distinct dimensions of
data: X,Y,Z, spatial locations, a Datum measure, and T time. New
operational and data structure paradigms will emerge to standardize
nomenclature and procedures. Discussion of these pending changes and
their significance to the dynamic field of GIS are presented." ,

is metadata management. Metadata is information about data (e.g.,
content, source, processing applied, precision). One kind of metadata
which needs special attention is the data derivation information,
i.e., how data are generated. In our application domain of
geographical information systems (GIS) and global change research, we
view scientific objects according to three different extents: spatial,
temporal, and derivation. While the spatial and temporal extents have
been studied and formal semantics to those extents proposed,
derivation semantics have been ignored. This paper presents a
framework for capturing and managing scientific data derivation
histories as implemented in the Gaea scientific database management
system. We focus on how Gaea handles metadata and propose to extend
current semantic modeling and object-oriented technology with special
constructs: concepts, processes, and tasks. Concepts are used to
capture entity sets with imprecise definitions. A process captures the
derivation procedure of a specific scientific object class, while a
task is the instance representing the derivation of a scientific data
object. We believe that this framework, useful for GIS and global
change studies, generalizes well to other scientific fields. " ,

model, diffusion drives short-term dynamics, and longer-term dynamic
depends upon a diffusion-extinction ratio; maximizing this ratio is
shown to be an Evolutionarily Stable Strategy. Over still longer
times, the effect of organisms upon their environments became
paramount. We use Mandelbrot's 1977 fractals to develop these models,

abstract= "This research studies the basic theoretical
material required to extend conventional Geographical Information
Systems (GIS) from their current 2-D and T2a5PDU form, to a 4-D form
that allows the combined use of 3-D spatial data and 1-D temporal
data. The 4-D GIS design treats all four components as dimensions of a
4-D space-time, and uses a discrete boundary representation model,
based on vectors, for the spatio-temporal database. This thesis
reviews GIS, modelling in general, dynamic modelling in particular,
and basic theories of space, time and space-time as a basis for the
development of the 4PD GIS. Analogous representations of reality are
drawn from other fields, such as quantum mechanics. A seven level
hierarchy of GIS software components is developed, within the five
component model of a TwholeU GIS. The 4-D GIS is designed to support
dynamic modelling operations within the GIS data structure. To this
end, a branching topology is developed for the 4-D data structure. In
order to support spatial, temporal and spatio-temporal topology,
point-set topological relations between all pairs of objects up to 4-D
(in all spaces up to 4PD) are explored and catalogued. For
construction of the 4-D objects in the database, a set of 3Pmanifold
Euler operators is developed. The basic software architecture of the
4-D GIS is set out, in accordance with the relevant parts of the seven
level hierarchy. Example C code for the basic data structure
declarations is included in an appendix. This is for a memory-based
data structure utilizing pointers; notes on modifications to make the
data structure file-based are included in the main text. A simple
spatio-temporal indexing scheme is developed, which allows the process
of ToverlayU to be deferred and restricted in extent, so as to
increase the efficiency of what will be a very large software and data
system. The research project has attempted to develop a GIS design
that can allow much better representation of reality in a computer,
rather than just representation of a map in a computer. It also
attempts to provide some initial links from the technology-oriented
domain of GIS to more general scientific disciplines, such as quantum
mechanics and information theory. Five TGrand Challenges in GISU are
advanced, primarily concerned with representing reality rather than
maps, and linking GIS to scientific discipline. The discussion is
developed so as to provide some response to those challenges." ,

abstract= "Most organizations with spatial data handling
requirements also have unmet requirements to handle temporal or
spatiotemporal data. Three major types of data would need to be
treated in a temporal GIS (TGIS): states, events, and evidence.
States are comprised of the features and attributes traditionally
considered as geographic information, although in a TGIS different
versions of features could be stored, viewed, and analyzed. Events are
the occurrences that cause one state to change to another, creating a
chain of versions for a given feature. And evidence is the source
documentation that notifies us that an event has occurred or that a
new state now exists. This discussion argues that the three data types
could be treated identically in a TGIS, since all have spatial extent
and all have attribute descriptors. The difficulty lies in describing
the interrelationships of specific states, events, and entities. This
paper suggests approaches for representing states, events, and
entities in a TGIS that is designed for maximum accountability. The
discussion uses examples taken from a hypothetical forest and
silvicultural database, which are in slide and viewgraph form. It has
not been customary to consider events and evidence as information on
par with states, yet organizations that must explicitly defend their
actions and analytical results have special incentives for such
careful record- keeping." ,

Very few works have been done in the spatio-temporal databases area.
Furthermore its two aspects---spatial aspect and temporal
aspect---have been treated independently, although they are sometimes
inseparable. We thus propose a modeling method, called Trace Model,
considering these two aspects in a time. This model efficiently
represents the spatiotemporal aspect, by using the trace of moving
object. And in order to represent the trace of moving object, we
propose two physical representation methods based on the linear octree
and representative curve. These methods premit us to reduce the memory
size to store a large voulme of data and to manipulate and analyze
moving objects." ,

abstract= "In existing DBMSs it is impossible to model only
primitive numeric data types and perform arithmetic between them. In
practice however, organizations need to store and manipulate more
complex numeric elements which could be interpreted as representing
quantities of a non-numeric measurement system, like that in which a
distance is expressed in feet and inches or that in which a weight is
expressed in quarters, stones, pounds and ounces. This implies that
users have to choose between two alternative options, either to
abandon the non-metric system and completely adapt their applications
to the limited capabilities of the DBMS or to write their own pieces
of code for the management of such more complex numeric data types.
The first approach is principally unacceptable and, at the same time,
there is a loss in the precision of arithmetic operations, since
quantities have to be expressed as real numbers. The second one is
tedious because distinct pieces of code have to be written for the
handling of different non-metric units. Furthermore, integrity
checking for these pieces of date has to be performed by application
programs rather than the DBMS. To overcome these problems, a new
generic data type is proposed, the composite number, whose support
automatically enables the use of any non-numeric measurement system.
Functions and operations are defined for the management of
composities. A syntax is also provided for their incorporation in a
database. since in practice time is usually expressed in many distinct
non-metric measurements units, whose choice depends on the particular
application, temporal databases is one of the many application areas
of the proposed formalisation." ,

geographic time-series data may be spatial or nonspatial, single-view

geographic metaphors can describes symbols on aspatial time-series
charts. Single-static-map strategies incorporate the temporal
dimension through techniques ranging from complex point symbols, or
temporal glyphs, to generalized trend-surface or flow-linkage maps
focusing on movement. The multiple-static-maps strategy juxtaposes two
or more maps for a simultaneous visual comparison of time units,
whereas the single-dynamic-map strategy either presents maps in a
temporal sequence or shows the evolution of a geographic pattern
through a temporally sequenced accretion of symbols. In contrast, the
multiple-dynamic-maps strategy provides programmed sequences of
multiple views or allows the viewer to interact with maps and
statistical diagrams representing different instants or periods of
time. Electronic graphics systems have added time to the
cartographer's list of visual variables. This paper addresses the
graphic portrayal of geographic time-series data. It explores a
variety of graphic strategies for the simultaneous symbolic
representation of time and space, and summarizeds these strategies in
a conceptual framework of protential use to cartographers,
geographers, and graphic designers. These strategies range from
statistical diagrams to maps to video animations to interactive

Partitioned databases cause a number of serious problems, for example
the maintenance of topology across map sheet boundaries. A seamless

abstract= "Current geographic data representational
techniques are predominantly geared toward representation of static
situations. Cartography has traditionally focused on the visible
representation of a portion of the world at a specific point in time.
Although Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are intended to provide
an integrated and flexible tool for analyzing large volumes of data,
representations historically used in GIS are also geared toward a
similar static view. Efforts to enhance the temporal capabilities of
GIS have served to reveal many problems at a fundamental, conceptual
level. A representational framework that unifies temporal, as well as
spatial and object (i.e., feature-related) aspects is described. This
is an extension of the representational framework originally discussed
by Peuquet (1988) and incorporates concepts from Perceptual
Psychology, Artificial Intelligence and other fields. It is the goal
of this research to provide a drawing-together of many concepts and
ideas, many of which are well known on an individual basis, so that
not only can analytical tools be improved, but also to provide a more
common ground among various fields. The inclusion of time is shown to
be a natural and obvious extension of the original, Dual framework.
The new, Triad framework includes the definition of fundamental types
of temporal relationships within this context. Some potential
mechanisms for operationalizing the Triad framework are also
discussed. These mechanisms include conceptual graphs and
non-monotonic reasoning, which allow temporal as well as spatial
patterns and cause-and-effect associations to be expressed as
assertions, tested against observational data, and stored as
information." ,

main contribution of this paper is the proposal of a framework for
managing temporal information in scientific databases. The
characteristics of this model are: (1) Time is treated as a basic data
type and property. (2) Attribute stamping is adopted whereby the
granularity of time can be defined by the user. (3) Time is treated
explicitly in the query language. (4) A helical view of time is used
for measuring the distance between two time points, and (5) the
implications of temporal analysis are addressed." ,

may also be viewed as two-level time topologies: a time topology for
all geographic entities in a GIS database and a time topology for a
single geographical entity. Based on these state and time topologies,
a detailed storage approach for historical geographical information is

formalizations of the GDP requirements in a manner that is independent
of data representation. Requirements executability is achieved by
selecting a subset of logic compatible with the inference mechanisms
available in Prolog. GDP significant concepts such as time, space, and
accuracy have been added to the formalization without losing Prolog
implementability or separation of concerns. Rules of reasoning about
time, space, and accuracy (based on positional, temporal, and fuzzy
logic) may be compactly stated in a subset of second-order predicate
calculus and may be easily modified to meet the particular needs of a
specific application. Multiple views of data and knowledge may coexist
in the same formalization. The feasibility of the approach has been
established with the aid of a prototype implementation of the
formalism in Prolog. The implementation also provides the means for
graphical rendering of logical information on a high resolution color

channel morphology is dependent on the geologic and climatic
environment, but during a shorter span of time, channel morphology is
an independent variable influencing the hydraulics of the channel.
During a long period of time a drainage system or its components can
be considered as an open system which is progresivly losing potential
energy and mass (erosion cycle), but over shorter spans of time
self-regulation is important, and components of the system may be
graded or in dynamic equilibrium. During an even shorter time span a
steady state may exist. Therefore, depending on the temporal and
spacial dimensions of the system under consideration, landforms can be
considered as either a stage in a cycle of erosion or as a system in
dynamic equilibrium." ,

abstract= "Geographic Information Systems (GIS) of the future
must certainly be based upon richer representational schemes than
today's commercial products. Many useful spatial and geographic
applications require a combination of spatial and temporal
representation, version management, inference mechanisms, user
interface management, and communications. The exact nature of these
elements, and how they might be used together in sophisticated future
GIS applications is, however, poorly understood. A research
environment for exploring these issues might separate architecture
from representation. Suppose there were a framework for integrating
applications consisting of standardized interfaces to a
spatial-temporal representation, to an inference mechanism, to a user
interface, and to communication services. Then a second, orthogonal
structure might formalize the relationship between abstract
representational theories and the concrete concerns of software
engineering. Spatial representation in such an environment should
encompass the usual elements of surveying and cartography, as well as
the mathematical details of capturing form and relationships in a
Euclidean three-space. Temporal representation should allow for time
recording and naming conventions as they exist in a multicultural
world, with alternative calendars. Versioning should allow for
alternative views of reality. This paper describes the conceptual
development of such an environment, the selection of multicultural
route planning as a prototypical application, and some early results." ,

not just spatial data handling but a unified approach to space and
time. This paper begins by motivating this requirement with some
examples, continues by identifying some of the key issues in this area
and then discusses a unified generic model for information which is
referenced to two spatial dimensions and two temporal dimensions
(database and event times)." ,

booktitle= "Proceedings of GIS/LIS '89" ,

pages = "116--122" ,
abstract= "A growing number of GIS have the capability
incorporate remotely sensed image data. The integration of remotely
sensed data within GIS raises the possibility of establishing a
database structure that can be used to store and retrieve image
histories in the management of those image data. The capability to do
temporal queries could allow detection of significant changes in land
use or environment conditions through use of multi-temporal remotely
sensed images within GIS. However, images present snapshots of spatial
data at a point in time and are represented in GIS as static entities.
Since current database structures tend to represent static views of
dynamic data, they are generally unsatisfactory for storing image
histories, as well as for analyzing the dynamics of earth surface
features. We review the concepts of valid time and effective time and
the structures of static database and historical database. A
temporal/spatial database structure is then presented that can store
and retrieve image histories and the differences among a remotely
sensed data obtained from the area over a period of time." ,
