Zhezhnych P., Peleschyshyn A. Time aspects of information systems. //Proceedings of the IXth International Conference CADSM, The Expierence of Designing and Application of CAD Systems in Microelectronics, February 20-24, 2007. – Lviv, Polyana, 2007 – P. 530-533.

Various time aspects were analyzed in a context of information systems functioning both in local and Web environments. Nine main features of time were emphasized: ordering relation, discreteness, referring to unique individualized events, dividing into past/present/future events, flowing of time, universality, irreversibility, no fixed events of future, a meta-moment structure. As generalization of these features a meta-moment time model in information systems was proposed.
