<div class="">AIMS and SCOPE</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">- Since 1994, the TIME International Symposium on Temporal Representation and Reasoning aims to bring together researchers in the area of temporal representation and reasoning in different areas of Computer Science and related disciplines.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">- TIME 2021 will be organized as a combination of technical paper presentations, keynote talks, and tutorials.</div>
<div class="">Besides sustaining the traditional three tracks (Time in Artificial Intelligence, Temporal Databases, and Temporal Logic and Reasoning) TIME 2021 in particular wants to stimulate cross cutting concerns.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">- TIME 2021 will be a hybrid conference. We are planning to have virtual participation for delegates and online presentations. We will also try to allow also an in-presence participation, according to the rapidly evolving pandemic situation.</div>

</div>
<div class="">JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUES<br class="">
<br class="">
As in recent years we plan to invite authors of selected papers to submit an extended version of their contribution to special issues of the journal Information and Computation (to be confirmed) and in addition selected papers of the special track will be
invited to a special issue on Temporal representation and reasoning for Covid-19 in the journal Artificial Intelligence in Medicine.</div>

</div>
<div class="">Submissions to TIME 2021 must be original, 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 (<a href="https://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/" class="" target="_BLANK">https://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics/</a>), a series of high-quality peer-reviewed conference proceedings
which are published according to the principle of OpenAccess. At least one author of each accepted paper must register at the conference and present either virtually or (if possible) in person. In-person participation in the symposium will not be a prerequisite
for publication.</div>
