What are the desired properties for a model of real type?

		1) It must be a field or work like it, etc.

	I intend to endow intervals with a weak notion of equivalence,
what make it works like a field, what will enable us to use intervals an
representations of real numbers. What are the desired properties that the
resulting structure must satisfy. Some bibliography is welcome.
