Abstract

The advent of large amounts of data on the web has closed the gap between the document storage and database communities. In this paper, this work is continued by the description of the foundations for temporal document databases. We describe the V2 temporal document database, which supports storage, retrieval, and querying of temporal documents. We describe functionality and operations /operators to be supported by such systems, and more specifically we describe the architecture for management of temporal documents used in the V2 prototype. We also give some performance results from a mini-benchmark run on the V2 prototype.
