=====================================================================</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Aims & Scope
<br>
---------------</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Since 1994, the TIME International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning aims to bring together researchers in the area of temporal reasoning in Computer Science. TIME 2020 encompasses three tracks,
but has a single program committee. The conference will be organized as a combination of technical paper presentations, keynote talks, and tutorials. </p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Tracks<br>
-------</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">- Time in Artificial Intelligence
<br>
- Temporal Databases

<br>
----------------------------</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">TIME 2020 accepts submissions in PDF format, not longer than 12 pages excluding references and appendix. The appendix is limited to 5 pages, and the reviewers may or may not take it into account for their recommendation.
Submissions must be formatted following the LIPIcs instructions (https://submission.dagstuhl.de/documentation/authors), and preferably redacted in LaTex. Submissions are managed by EasyChair (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=time2020). TIME policy
is single blind, so the names of the authors should not be hidden in the submitted draft. Members of the program committee, excluding the co-chairs, are allowed to submit papers. Submitted papers will be refereed for quality, correctness, originality, and
relevance to the conference.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Submissions to TIME 2020 must be original, and parallel submissions of the same material to other conferences or journals are not allowed. Accepted papers will be presented at the symposium and included in the
proceedings, which will be published by LIPIcs-Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics (https://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/). This is a series of high-quality peer-reviewed conference proceedings, and published according to the principle
of OpenAccess. At least one author of each accepted paper must register at the conference and present the paper.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their contribution to a special issue of a high quality journal yet to be decided. <br>
