An Algebraic Model of Structure of Temporal Objects

In this paper, four constructors, i. e., tuple, set, list and temporal constructors were introduced to construct an algebraic model of structure of temporal objects. Transfor-mations from various traditional temporal relational data models to the temporal object model were illustrated. The study has shown that the algebraic model of structure of temporal objects has more advantages over temporal relational models in complex structures and temporal semantics modeling.
