In this paper, we propose a framework for representing and reasoning about qualitative and quantitative temporal constraints on periodic events. We describe a formalism to deal with both qualitative and quantitative "periodicity-dependent" constraints between repeated events, considering also user-defined periodicities. We first propose a correct but not complete intensional approach to temporal reasoning based on the operations of intersection and composition, and then we complement it with a correct and complete extensional approach.
