3. Conclusion
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> I have shown here how a notion of e/s structure, separate from the listener's discourse model can form the basis of an account of explicit reference to events via a process of individuating reference. In \[8\], I show how e/s structure can also be used as a basis for the anaphoric interpretation of clause-level tense and relative temporal adverbials (which in turn extends els structure through the attachment of the clause's interpretation. That e/s structure can be seen to participate in these two quite different linguistic phenomena gives credence to its value in our pursuit of a complete theory of discourse understanding.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> Next steps include (1) integrating this with current work on the representation of events and situations \[6, 3\], (2) developing an account of what individuating reference has access to in e/s structure, and (3) developing a procedure for identifying and choosing among possible ways of resolving an individuating reference \[4\].</Paragraph>
