The choice of the notions to be considered has been relied upon a necessity of special facilities for describing situations with various de gre e s of detailing according to an inexact character of temporal information in natural language texts. Time is mod e lled as a straight directed line, and four main objects: point, interval, quantity and chain together with four groups of notions associated with them are included into the model. A structure of the T-model and its base notions are briefly outlined in the first section of the paper. The representation of temporal information by means of T-model objects is then considered by examples.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/81","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/0081.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/81.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/bibtex/81","volume":{"slug":"1983","title":"Proceedings of the Eighth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1983","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/","year":1983,"location":"Karlsruhe, West Germany","dates":"","editors":"Alan Bundy","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Knowledge Representation","track":"Knowledge Representation","number":81,"pages":{"first":346,"last":347},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
