“…Consequently, the information in the institutional strand is easier to describe with exact time stamps than in the two other strands. Time has been modeled according to instant (aka episode) and interval in information system design [4]. Our findings indicate that information can be temporally depicted similarly in CIS in social work.…”

Abstract. Our study focuses on the information needed for overviews by social workers in child protection, and how information is presented in client information systems (CIS). Data consists of semi-structured interviews and social workers' observations while they used CIS in their daily work. The analysis was structured by the concept of temporal trajectory. We identified three major interconnected information strands: concern, child's private life and institutional actions. Their temporal lengths and aspects are disparate. CIS offers modest temporal overviews of clients' cases. Representing information strands as timelines on the interface would provide better overviews.

“…It is widely known in the literature that temporal representation and reasoning in medicine is a key issue to support medical decision making (Combi and Pozzi 2006). Indeed, different medical tasks are based on temporal clinical data processing; among the others, we mention here decision support for diagnosis, advice on therapy, clinical data summarization, intensive care unit (ICU) monitoring, and epidemiological studies (Combi et al 2010). In the following, we will focus in particular on the semistructured nature of these temporal data, as they come from different sources, are often given through forms containing natural languages sentences, and may be characterized by different, coexisting, levels of detail.…”

In this paper we propose a graph-based generic model able to uniformly represent semistructured data and their temporal aspects. In particular, we start from a generic and expressive model proposed in the database literature and consider in a formal and systematic way both valid time and transaction time, together with the set of temporal constraints needed to correctly manage the semantics of the represented time dimension. We then propose operations, which allow the incremental management of the proposed model satisfying the introduced temporal constraints. Moreover, we also deal with the possibility of managing together the two classical time dimensions of valid and transaction times, and formalize the set of constraints needed to correctly handle these temporal aspects together. Some examples taken from a medical scenario will be used to describe the introduced concepts.
