<p>This document presents an ontology of temporal concepts,

OWL-Time (formerly DAML-Time) [4,10], for describing the temporal content of Web pages

|
a vocabulary for expressing facts about topological relations among
|
|
instants and intervals, together with information about durations,

and about datetime information. We also demonstrate in detail,
|
|
using the Congo.com and Bravo Air examples from OWL-S [11], how this time ontology can be used to support
|
|
OWL-S, including use cases for defining input parameters and
|
|
(conditional) output parameters. A use case for meeting scheduling
|
|
is also shown. In the appendix we also describe a time zone
|
|
resource in OWL we developed for not only the US but also the
|
|
entire world, including the time zone ontology, the US time zone
|
|
instances, and the world time zone instances.<br />

this document are (i) to explain what the advantages are of

using Semantic Web languages and technologies for the creation,
