We address the problem of indexing temporal XML documents. In particular we show that by indexing continuous paths, i.e. paths that are valid continuously during a certain interval in a temporal XML graph, we can dramatically increase query performance. We describe in detail the indexing scheme, denoted TempIndex, and compare its performance against both a system based on a nontemporal path index, and one based on DOM.
