Abstract
This paper describes an intelligent approach to represent information including uncertainly specified time periods by software agents in medical environment. Temporal reasoning capabilities are based on uncertainty ontology modeling and generalized Allen’s interval relations. An example of temporal reasoning capabilities in data annotated by means of the temporal ontology is given.
