Now-related temporal data play an important role in the medical context. Current relational temporal database (TDB) approaches are limited since (i) they (implicitly) assume that the span of time occurring between the time when facts change in the world and the time when the changes are recorded in the database is exactly known, and (ii) do not explicitly provide an extended relational algebra to query now-related data. We propose an approach that, widely adopting AI symbolic manipulation techniques, overcomes the above limitations.

Abstract

Now-related temporal data play an important role in the medical context. Current relational temporal database (TDB) approaches are limited since (i) they (implicitly) assume that the span of time occurring between the time when facts change in the world and the time when the changes are recorded in the database is exactly known, and (ii) do not explicitly provide an extended relational algebra to query now-related data. We propose an approach that, widely adopting AI symbolic manipulation techniques, overcomes the above limitations.
