Abstract :
This paper focuses on the rule based fuzzy cognitive maps (RB-FCM) potential to model the dynamics of qualitative real-world systems that include feedback links. It presents a general overview of RB-FCM and proposes a set of possible concepts and relations. It also provides guidelines to introduce time as an important qualitative entity of cognitive maps
