Abstract: This paper introduces an ongoing research towards the development of an ontological framework for events considered as transitions among situations. This framework is based on the idea that systems as the invariant element shared by each of the successive situations in the course of an event. With that, we intend to establish a criteria to determine which successions of situations correspond to genuine events and what participates in an event at each time. Moreover, from the application of such criteria we intend to derive types of event to help in the tasks of build, assessing, and fixing models of events.
