This paper gives an overview of logico-philosophical issues of time and determinism. After a brief review of historical roots and 20th century developments, three current research areas are discussed: the definition of determinism, space-time indeterminism, and the temporality of individual things and their possibilities.

BACKGROUND The global response to HIV has started over 18 million persons on life-saving antiretroviral therapy (ART)-the vast majority in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC)-yet substantial gaps remain: up to 40% of persons living with HIV (PLHIV) know their status, while another 30% of those who enter care are inadequately retained after starting treatment. Identifying strategies to enhan...

The author explores the different temporalities of developmental time, après-coup and what she calls 'reverberation time'. She considers the paradoxical temporality of the 'here and now', showing that it is not pure present, and describes at the micro-level of sessional material how progressive and retrospective time go inherently together, one being a requisite for the other.

Durative forces are introduced to Finite State Temporality (the application of Finite State Methods to Temporal Semantics). Punctual and durative forces are shown to have natural representations as fluents which place certain constraints on strings. These forces are related to previous work on stative explanations of aspectual classification. Given this extended ontology, it is shown how type c...

Games differ from most other forms of media by being procedural and interactive. These qualities change how games create and transmit meaning to their players. The concept of “real-time hermeneutics” (Aarseth 2003) is analysed in order to understand how temporality affects the understanding of games. Temporal frames (Zagal and Mateas 2010) are introduced as an alternative way of understanding t...

This paper presents the work done in Technicolor and INRIA regarding the Affect Task at MediaEval 2011. This task aims at detecting violent shots in movies. We studied a bayesian network framework, and several ways of introducing temporality and multimodality in the framework.
