A number of studies on time as a quantum observable canonically conjugate to energy, with reference to systems with continuous and discrete energy spectra, are briefly reviewed in this minimal-mathematics methodological note. The results of and prospects for the time analysis of quantum processes using time as a quantum observable are examined.
