Mechanical verification of transaction processing systems
ICFEM 2000. Third IEEE International Conference on Formal Engineering Methods, 2002Concerns the formal specification and mechanical verification of transaction processing systems aimed at distributed databases. In such systems, a standard set of ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and Durability) properties must be ensured by a combination of concurrency control and recovery protocols.

A classification of transaction processing systems
Computer, 1991The problems in building a transaction processing system are discussed, and it is shown that the difficulties are a function of specific attributes of the underlying database system. A model of a transaction processing system is presented, and five system dimensions important in classifying transaction processing systems-the process, machine ...

Transaction Processing Systems [PDF]
, 2003 ACID properties A transaction is characterized by four properties referred to as the ACID properties: atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability. database update The real effect of a transaction; it takes one of three forms: add, change, and delete.

TRANSACTION PROCESSING IN DISTRIBUTED CONTROL SYSTEMS
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1979Abstract While the flexibility of a process control system may be enhanced by modular design, the effectiveness of the system often depends upon coordination of the modules’ actions. The conflict between designing clearly bounded modules and providing for coupling between them gives rise to important design tradeoffs in two major areas: the ...

Camelot: a flexible, distributed transaction processing system [PDF]
Digest of Papers. COMPCON Spring 88 Thirty-Third IEEE Computer Society International Conference, 1988 The Camelot Project has constructed a distributed transaction facility intended to support widespread use of transaction processing techniques. Camelot executes on a variety of uni- and multiprocessors on top of the Unix-compatible, Mach operating system.

On parallel transaction processing in a coupled system
Proceedings of 1994 International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Systems, 2002A performance study is conducted on parallel transaction processing in a coupled system, which is a multi-node system with a shared global buffer. We develop a multiple system simulator and obtain several performance results from it. This simulator has been run against three workloads, and the coupled system behavior with these three different inputs ...

A transactional nested process management system
Proceedings of the Twelfth International Conference on Data Engineering, 2002Providing flexible transaction semantics and incorporating activities, data and agents are the key issues in workflow system development. Unfortunately, most of the commercial workflow systems lack the advanced features of transaction models, and an individual transaction model with specific emphasis lacks sufficient coverage for business process ...

In Search of Transactional Processes in the Caregiving System
Developmental Review, 1995Abstract Bradley and Caldwell propose a new taxonomy to describe proximal aspects of the caregiving environment. In doing so, they provide a useful heuristic for scale construction and research planning. We offer three concerns. The first is that the system lacks proper consideration of person-environment transactions, especially with respect to ...

Multithreaded transaction processing in distributed systems
Journal of Systems and Software, 1997Distributed operating systems are potentially more powerful than traditional operating systems due to their advantages of fault tolerance, parallelism, scalability, reliability, resource sharing and availability. The price to pay for such power is the complexity encountered in software design and implementation of such systems.

Retrieval processes in transactive memory systems.
Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 1998Two experiments examined retrieval processes in transactive memory systems (D. M. Wegner, 1987). In Experiment 1, intimate couples who worked face to face performed better on a knowledge-pooling task than strangers who worked face to face and better than intimate couples who worked via a computer conferencing system.
