Abstract

Representing temporally-changing information becomes increasingly important for reasoning & query services defined on top of RDF and OWL, and for the Semantic Web/Web 2.0 in general. Extending binary OWL properties or RDF triples with a further temporal argument either lead to additional objects or to reification, as [1] have shown.

The research described in this paper has been partially financed by the European Integrated Project MUSING under contract number FP6-027097
