Yes, for validity time of facts, but also for defining the time on which complex events have been derived. As stated in [1]: "Simple events happen at a single time instant, complex events start and end happening whereas facts always have a time interval during which they are valid.". Hence simple events could be represented as a graph with a single timestamp, complex events and facts could be represented as graphs defined on intervals. The meaning of the intervals for complex events and facts have different interpretations (and need semantics to be defined), i.e., complex events have been derived (occurred in the past) in an interval, whereas facts are valid in an interval (an interval possibly extended until certain point in the future).     

Essentially if we have the interval-based graphs (e.g., with startTime and endTime where the startTime is optional), then we can represent the all three categories with no overhead.

Cheers,
Darko
