Most temporal data models have concentrated on describing temporal data based on versioning of objects, tuples, or attributes. The concept of time series, which is often needed in temporal applications, does not fit well within these models. The goal of this paper is to propose a generalized temporal database model that integrates the modeling of both version-based and time-series based temporal data into a single conceptual framework. The concept of calendar is also integrated into our proposed model. We also discuss how a conceptual Extended-ER design in our model can be mapped to an object-oriented or relational database implementation.Read the full paper here: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/BFb0019933
