Sense of Time for Homer

Sense of Time for Homer

Homer keeps an agent time, which is the number of seconds elapsed since 1-JAN-1900. The agent time factor can be altered, causing agent time to pass faster or slower than real time. Relative temporal references are translated into the appropriate interval of agent time. Each record in the episodic memory is labeled with a time tag, which allows querying about the agent's past actions. Agent time also permits temporal planning and reasoning wherein actions can be assigned a time at which they are to be executed.
