T1 - The telic/atelic distinction in temporal databases
AU - Terenziani, Paolo
PY - 2012
Y1 - 2012
N2 - Prior research in philosophy, linguistics, artificial intelligence and other areas suggests the need to differentiate between temporal facts with goal-related semantics (i.e., telic) from those that are intrinsically devoid of culmination (i.e., atelic). We investigate the impact of the telic/atelic distinction on temporal databases, considering data and query semantics, query languages, and conceptual models.
