Abstract :
This paper proposes an integrated time management model, DWfS-TMM, which consists of a set of general time ontology and a set of general rules for unified transformation between different time zones and different time granularity units. The description of build-time and run-time temporal constraints in workflow processes and the temporal consistency checking method in this model are investigated too.
