Abstract
This paper identifies, explores and provides an approach to handling temporal information in object databases. It specifically involves the design and development of the Temporal Three Dimensional Information Space model that integrates time with objects. The model is based on a small number of simple temporal object constructs and provides a user with the basic primitives for temporal object definition, manipulation and retrieval. This research presents a step towards defining the concepts and techniques for incorporating time in object databases, and provides concrete experimental framework for demonstration thereof. Target Application environments include management and geographic information systems, database visualization and robotics.Keywords
