Abstract: An important requirement of advanced temporal applications is the ability to deal with definite, indefinite, finite and infinite temporal information. There is currently no database model which offers this functionality in a single unified framework. We argue that the combination of relational databases and temporal constraints offers a powerful framework which addresses these needs. In this thesis we develop the foundations of a theory of temporal constraint databases and indefinite temporal... (Update)

...databases can be done in PTIME. In this paper we consider the scheme of indefinite constraint databases proposed by Koubarakis [25, 26, 31]. This scheme can be used to represent indefinite information arising in temporal, spatial and truly spatiotemporal applications...

...does not need an explicit representation of time. Constraints dealing with explicit time are called temporal integrity constraints [Ko] and require storage of time in one way or another in the database. Note that static constraints are special cases of dynamic...
