Proceedings. Fifth International Workshop on Temporal Representation and Reasoning (Cat. No.98EX157)

The following topics were dealt with: temporal representation and reasoning; plan management; highly reactive decision making; model-based visualization of temporal abstractions; uncertain temporal reasoning for distributed transportation scheduling; time granularity in natural language; extended message sequence charts with time-interval semantics; temporal data obsolescence; temporal object query language; qualitative temporal reasoning; instantiations of contextual scenarios of periodic events; qualitative and quantitative temporal reasoning with points and durations; quantitative structural temporal constraints on repeating events; event calculus with explicit quantifiers; action, causality, and the temporal relations of events; qualification problem using fluent dependency constraints; embedded timing system; support strategy in temporal resolution; model and query event-based temporal data; counterfactual moments; formal characterization of temporal repetition; temporal relationships among experimental variables; temporal propagation algorithm for scheduling; time expression visualization; calendar attribute generalization; and dynamic doxastic logic
