TLDR
Several aspects of time in the heterogeneous world of Informatics are introduced and ontologies for time in different domains of computers and their applications are defined.Abstract:
Aim of this paper is to introduce several aspects of time in the heterogeneous world of Informatics and define ontologies for time in different domains of computers and their applications Some philosophical and physical backgrounds are given, to show how, from the richness of often contrasting ideas developed in the framework of these disciplines, many useful concepts have been derived also for computer science Architectural aspects of computer systems, Information Systems applications, and Real-time systems, are considered as temporally problematic domainsread more

TL;DR: A framework for Compliance Monitoring Functionalities (CMF) is defined that enables the systematic comparison of existing and new approaches for monitoring compliance rules over business processes during runtime and provides powerful means to position existing and future compliance monitoring approaches.

Chapter 2: Ontology for Spatio-temporal Databases
TL;DR: Ontology and the related term "semantics" have recently found increased attention in database discussions as mentioned in this paper, and early discussions of ontology issues important for databases were lost in a sea of papers on technical, mostly performance issues, despite the fact that textbooks as early as [134] discussed briefly the relationship between information system and real world.

Compositional Scheduling Analysis Using Standard Event Models
TL;DR: Eingebettete Echtzeitsysteme mussen eine Vielzahl von Zeit- und Performanzanforderungen erfullen, z.B. maximale Reaktionszeiten oder vorgegebene Kommunikationsbandbreiten, ohne auf die globale Schedulinganalyse verzichten zu mussen.

Time, clocks, and the ordering of events in a distributed system
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of one event happening before another in a distributed system is examined, and a distributed algorithm is given for synchronizing a system of logical clocks which can be used to totally order the events.
Journal Article
Maintaining knowledge about temporal intervals
TL;DR: An interval-based temporal logic is introduced, together with a computationally effective reasoning algorithm based on constraint propagation, which is notable in offering a delicate balance between space and time.
