abstract = "A time scale is an arbitrary nonempty closed subset of the real numbers. The theory of time scales calculus is a powerful tool not only to unify continuous and discrete analysis but also to model various natural phenomena that occur on hybrid time domains. In this chapter, some necessary preliminaries and basic knowledge on time scales will be introduced to lay a foundation for the later chapters.",
