The Serializability of Concurrent Database Updates

by Christos H. Papadimitriou - Journal of the ACM , 1979
"... ABSTRACT A sequence of interleaved user transactions in a database system may not be ser:ahzable, t e, equivalent to some sequential execution of the individual transactions Using a simple transaction model, it ~s shown that recognizing the transaction histories that are serlahzable is an NP-complet ..."

On optimistic methods for concurrency control

by H. T. Kung, John T. Robinson - ACM Transactions on Database Systems , 1981
"... Most current approaches to concurrency control in database systems rely on locking of data objects as a control mechanism. In this paper, two families of nonlocking concurrency controls are presented. The methods used are “optimistic ” in the sense that they rely mainly on transaction backup as a co ..."

"... this article, we discuss the fundamentals of distributed DBMS technology. We address the data distribution and architectural design issues as well as the algorithms that need to be implemented to provide the basic DBMS functions such as query processing, concurrency control, reliability, and replica ..."

A majority consensus approach to concurrency control for multiple copy databases

by Robert H. Thomas, Bolt Beranek - ACM Transactions on Database Systems , 1979
"... A “majority consensus ” algorithm which represents a new solution to the update synchronization problem for multiple copy databases is presented. The algorithm embodies distributed control and can function effectively in the presence of communication and database site outages. The correctness of the ..."

On the Difference between Updating a Knowledge Base and Revising it

by Hirofumi Katsuno, Alberto O. Mendelzon
"... this paper, we argue that no such set of postulates will be adequate for every application. In particular, we make a fundamental distinction between two kinds of modifications to a knowledge base. The first one, update, consists of bringing the knowledge base up to date when the world described by i ..."

by it changes. For example, most database updates are of this variety, e.g. "increase Joe's salary by 5%". Another example is the incorporation into the knowledge base of changes caused in the world by the actions of a robot (Ginsberg and Smith 1987, Winslett 1988, Winslett 1990) . We show

Virtual time

by David R. Jefferson - ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems , 1985
"... Virtual time is a new paradigm for organizing and synchronizing distributed systems which can be applied to such problems as distributed discrete event simulation and distributed database concur-rency control. Virtual time provides a flexible abstraction of real time in much the same way that virtua ..."

R-trees: A Dynamic Index Structure for Spatial Searching

by Antonin Guttman - INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MANAGEMENT OF DATA , 1984
"... In order to handle spatial data efficiently, as required in computer aided design and geo-data applications, a database system needs an index mechanism that will help it retrieve data items quickly according to their spatial locations However, traditional indexing methods are not well suited to data ..."
