Hi Gian,
Thanks for the reference.
Do you have a free version of the relevant
pages from that URL? The book itself is $99 which is more than I would like to
spend without knowing more about it.
Curiously,

Dear Rich, Pat,
With respect to the use of temporal constraints during the unification process,
you can see also the Sections "NKRL, Timestamps and Intervals" (pages
80-86) and "Temporal Information and Indexing" (pages 194-201) of my
2009 book (http://www.springer.com/computer/ai/book/978-1-84800-077-3).
Regards,
Gian Piero ZARRI

In fact, with a bit of extra work one can embed almost all the

Please do send me the "details" about the "generalized unification algorithm
which extracts temporal constraints within the unification process". I am
very interested in such material and references.
The only write-up is in a final report to the Army written in 2004. I've put a copy here:

feel free to use it. The Army didn't think enough of it to continue funding the project, so its been languishing since then.
