Hello,

I would like to have many events happen at the same time (as many as 160 ), and then have more events (as many as 160) happen in the next time period, for several time periods.

I have checked the wiki, and looked through the source code, but I have not found an obvious way to do this in narsese.

I have seen references to Duration or Temporal Window, but can not see how to set these.

Q1: Is this sensible?
Q2: If so, is there a suggested approach?

many thanks

Dwane

It turns out it is trivial to have multiple events at the same instance in time. To create a, b and c at the same time:

(a &| b &| c).

(a &| b &| c).
Input: (a &| b). Priority=1.000000 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.900000
Revised: (a &| b). Priority=1.000000 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.947368
Revised: a. Priority=0.905000 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.895028
Derived: a. Priority=0.905000 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.810000
Revised: b. Priority=0.905000 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.895028
Derived: b. Priority=0.905000 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.810000
Revised: (b &| a). Priority=0.452500 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.895028
Derived: (b &| a). Priority=0.452500 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.810000
a?
Input: a?
Answer: a. creationTime=3 Truth: frequency=1.000000, confidence=0.895028

Dear Dwane!

To make it events the system can temporally relate to others, also add the event marker :|: like here:
(a &| b). :|:
A parallel conjunction is indeed the only way in ONA currently to do this.

Best regards,
Patrick
