John, I understand and appreciate your response, and I acknowledge your statement that time and space are not always necessary for all concepts. As I forgot and your triggered memories of my system engineering designs, where in many cases I defined state machines that determined behavior of a system without the use of time dependencies. These were logical dependencies.
I was trying to agree with the concept that it I find it useful to keep some general concepts separate from a domain ontology and then integrate them from a standardized or reputable source ontology as necessary. Hopefully this would enable the reuse of many time-space concepts and relations, thus keeping my errors to a minimum.
I am not sure this would be classified as use of an upper ontology, as much as reuse of other ontologies that are widely understood and reputable and useful in many domains. For example I would find a state machine ontology useful in multiple domains.
