More specifically, retroactive data structures[0] are an interesting lens for thinking about bitemporality. After watching some great Erik Demaine lectures on temporal data structures I wrote a bit about the relationship to bitemporality on the Crux site[1]. (Crux being a bitemporal database with graph-friendly Datalog queries)
> In summary, the Crux indexes as a whole could be described as a "partially persistent and fully retroactive data structure".
