“Quid est ergo tempus?
Si nemo ex me quaerat, scio.
Si quaerenti explicare velim,
nescio.”

“What then is time?
If no one asks me, I know.
If I wish to explain to him who asks,
I do not know.”

_St. Augustine (354–430CE) Confessions, XI, 14_


The primary goal of the Abstract Conceptual Model for Time is to establish clear concepts, their relationships, and terminology.
