You can find out how indexing works here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_index[^].

I cannot understand the second question. Do you mean that a stored procedure works slowly; how to improve the situation not changing its code?

First most obvious idea is actually using already written stored procedures good for some purpose, as it's always possible to do the same job without using them.

See also these tips: http://geekswithblogs.net/CatherineRussell/archive/2010/06/25/5-stored-procedures-optimization-tips.aspx[^].

Tip #1 is the variant of my advice above, tips #2 and #4 are also not related to changing their code.
