Description
Summary:The article outlines existing solutions in the area of graphs and temporal databases. It provides explanation for why the temporal graph database was created. Furthermore, the article also describes the concept and assumptions about the temporal graph database, including a proposal of two methods for representing temporal data in graph databases. Full write method assumes creating a new database object for each state of being. While incremental method writes only such features and relationships that were subject to change. Regardless of the data write method used, the data may be returned in a historically unordered or ordered manner. The article outlines assumptions for both methods of representing data.
