<p>Let T denote the set of temporal entities. This specification is neutral regarding the formal specification of temporal entities.</p>

<h4>Instants and Intervals</h4>

<p>Following the concepts of the Time Ontology (<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/owl-time/">http://www.w3.org/TR/owl-time/</a>), a temporal entity can be a time instant or a time interval.</p>
<h4>Instants and Intervals</h4>

An instant is an instantaneous point of time on underlying axis and is isomorphic to numbers.
<!--Caution: Issue 31: https://github.com/streamreasoning/RSP-QL/issues/31 -->
Henceforth a timestamp is an object associated with an instant, and a time interval is the interval between two instants. An object is either a further RDF triple or a set of triples. As a consequence a temporal entity is an entity associated with a timestamp or a time interval[Dyreson94,Allen83]. <br>

An ontology that follows these specifications is the OWLTime ontology (<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/owl-time/">http://www.w3.org/TR/owl-time/</a>). It defines all necessary temporal RDF concepts, such as instants, intervals and temporalEntities, and relations thereon.
