Unifying Scheduled Time Models with Interactive Event-based Timing: Notes on Indeterminate Timing

This note describes a model for unifying event-based indeterminate timing (also known as atemporal composition) and declarative, determinate timing. Background rationale is presented, and a mechanism is described for processing events in the timing model and scheduler. The specifics of integrating this model into the SMIL timing model are described. This paper was originally published June 6, 1999 as a W3C (SYMM working group) internal note.
