  • Abstract
    Boolean contact algebras constitute a convenient approach to a region based theory of space. In this paper we want to extend this approach to regions moving in time - called timed contact structures. We study their canonical models using topological spaces. As the main contribution we prove a general representation theorem for this kind of algebras.
